What Falls From The Table
by NewSalem

Album: Strings of Faith

A young man left his father, in the Bible we're told,
And He spent all his money, he was hungry and cold.
Then he said, "I must go back, if just a servant to be;
What falls from the table in my father's house is good enough for me."

So, why did he turn away and away and away
From the good things his dad gave him free?
And why did he live locked up in pain and despair,
When his father would hand him the key?
What riches await us, when our faith is bold!
What falls from the table in our Father's house is worth more than gold.

Then a woman from Canaan came to Jesus one day
To beg for her daughter from evil spirits to save.
Though a stranger, unworthy, her faith made the girl whole.
And what fell from the table, that Jesus had set, healed her body and soul!

So, why do we turn away and away and away
From the good things that God gives us free?
And why do we lived locked up in pain and despair,
When Jesus will hand us the key?
What riches await us, when our faith is bold!
What falls from the table in our Father's house is worth more than gold!
What falls from the table in our Father's house is worth more than gold!
