Come to the Feast (AOV 1/151)

This is another Marty Haugen song that I’ve never heard sung, except in the sample at AOV and the sample from GIA. We use Dan Schutte’s “Table of Plenty” instead, which is in AOV 2.

It can be purchased at GIA and you can hear the whole song at Haugen’s MySpace page.

It is very long and as written is a solo piece with the assembly singing responses.  I see no reason why the assembly couldn’t sing the whole thing but I suspect you would have to pick and choose the verses to sing and possibly dispense with the key change since I doubt you’ll make it to the fifth verse. That is unless you are baptising an awful lot of people at once, in which case, knock yourself out.

The text is here – scroll down to page twelve.
