Backstory:

I had an insight that there is a parallel between the Catholic Mass and the Soup Kitchen.  I visited a local soup kitchen to check it out.  This song is the result.                

Lyrics:

                                                  
SACRED SOUP KITCHEN
                                                       C 2016, SSS
VERSE 1
The Sacred Soup Kitchen is open today,
Serving the hungry who come by the way.
The table is filled with good things to eat,
And some to take out when we're back on the street.

CHORUS
O come, come to the Sacred Soup Kitchen;
The cook is preparing a blessed good time:
He's put His whole Self in the bread and the wine.

VERSE 2
There's reading of Scripture, prayers and a song;
There's preaching to tell us what's right and what's wrong.
We pray for all people to have food to live;
Fresh or outdated, we take what they give.
CHORUS

VERSE 3
We line up for dinner; the movement is slow;
We're served plate and cup; take one or take both.
We sing out our thanks to the Father above,
And bow down to savor the meal served in love.
CHORUS
