Room Enough at the Table

[Verse 1]
You drew a line across the table
I saw the fear behind your hand
I brought a chair from my side over
Made room for one more in the band

Your name is shaped by different weather
Your prayers rise in a different tongue
But every child still needs a shelter
And every heart still wants someone

[Pre-Chorus]
We are not stones thrown at each other
We are the breath beneath the skin
Put down the armor, call me brother
Let the wider world come in

[Chorus]
No more walls between our breathing
No more names turned into blame
Love is stronger when it's shared here
Mercy is a living flame
You and I, with all our differences
Can stand beneath the same blue sky
Hate divides, but we decide this:
We will choose to multiply

[Verse 2]
I heard the rumor cross the market
Like broken glass from mouth to mouth
One small lie can feed a furnace
If nobody dares to put it out

So I spoke your story back with kindness
Told them what I knew was true
A stranger's face became a neighbor
When I took the time to listen to you

[Pre-Chorus]
We are not flags above a battlefield
We are the hands that plant the grain
Every wound can learn to heal still
Every door can open again

[Chorus]
No more walls between our breathing
No more names turned into blame
Love is stronger when it's shared here
Mercy is a living flame
You and I, with all our differences
Can stand beneath the same blue sky
Hate divides, but we decide this:
We will choose to multiply

[Bridge]
If your sorrow finds my doorway
I will not ask where you began
If my weakness meets your patience
I can rise and try again

Let the children learn our answer
When the old suspicion calls:
There is room enough at the table
There is room enough for all

[Final Chorus]
No more walls between our breathing
No more names turned into blame
Love is stronger when it's shared here
Mercy is a living flame
You and I, with all our differences
Can stand beneath the same blue sky
Hate divides, but we decide this:
We will choose to multiply

[Outro]
Different hands, one human promise
Different roads, one home tonight
If we guard each other's dignity
We can turn the dark to light
