The Feast of Words

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We sat around the table low
No kings, no crowns, just firelight glow
No feast of wine or meat to spare
But every soul was full in there

[Pre-Chorus]
We broke no bread, we sang no song
But truth was passed the whole night long

[Chorus]
The feast of words — it fed us deep
More than the harvest, more than sleep
We laughed and thought, we cried and knew
That joy can live in what is true
No silver plates, no golden chords
Just hearts alive… at the feast of words

[Verse 2]
August winds, and gentle rain
Tapped the roof like a soft refrain
And in that room, a question stirred:

Is joy not found in spoken word?

[Pre-Chorus]
And when the silence made its place
We saw the Light behind each face

[Chorus]
The feast of words — it fed us deep
More than the harvest, more than sleep
We laughed and thought, we cried and knew
That joy can live in what is true
No silver plates, no golden chords
Just hearts alive… at the feast of words

[Bridge – spoken echo beneath vocals]
A mother’s gaze, a friend’s reply
A soul that asks and won’t deny

[Guitar Solo – melodic, interwoven with soft piano]

[Final Chorus – gentle start, then triumphant rise]
The feast of words — we’ll eat again
Where joy and truth don’t ever end
Not every meal is bread and wine
Some are woven into time
The world may mock what it ignores
But joy was born… at the feast of words
