Around a Table

➜Song:  ‘Around a table’. Words © Sharon Moughtin

​

This Building Block is particularly designed for groups that are held during a communion service, either when the children are present throughout, or when the children will be returning to join the rest of the congregation to receive communion.

​

Around a table Hold arms out, palms up
with God’s gifts to share, 
as sisters and brothers

Hold hands, or stretch hands out wide towards each other
we lift up our prayer.

Swing hands to and fro then lift them in prayer
 

And bread is broken Mime breaking
and wine is poured Mime pouring
and Jesus is with us Hold arms out, palms up
and blesses us all. Mime placing a hand on a row of heads
The Spirit is poured out Palms down above head, moving down 
again and again Palms down above head, moving down
and all God’s creation Point around group and beyond 
will shout ‘AMEN!’ Cup hands around mouth to shout
