Here's the lyrics of the song in the correct order
Verse 1:
In a place called Lodibar lived a young man who was crippled from a fall
His name was Mophibosheth, the son of Johnathan, the son of Saul
He was trying to survive since Johnathan and Saul were slain
It seemed all hope was in vain
And each lonely night was spent in fear of what another day would bring
Verse 2:
But one day King David said, There is one thing I'd like to do
Is there one of the house of Saul? Someone I can show my kindness to?
Someone said, Down in Lodibar there lives the son of Johnathan
Mophibosheth, the crippled one
David said, Go and find him and bring him this message from the king
Chorus:
Mophibosheth, forever put your fears to rest
Come and be my table guest
To you I'll be a father and my son you'll always be
Mophibosheth, please accept the invitation
I've made all the preparation
Mophibosheth cried, Oh how can this be?
That a king could ever love someone like me
Verse 3:
Living in Lodibar where there's not comfort for a troubled soul
Just a place full of broken hearts, never knowing what the future holds
But now that I've met the King there's nothing like His love for me
Now I'm part of the Family
Since someone came and knocked upon my door
With this Message from the King
Chorus:
Mophibosheth, forever put your fears to rest
Come and be my table guest
To you I'll be a father and my son you'll always be
Mophibosheth, please accept the invitation
I've made all the preparation
Mophibosheth cried, Oh how can this be?
That a king could ever love someone like me
How could he ever love someone?
It's good to know He loves someone like me
Like me
Verse 4:
I rejoice when I recall the day I watched those bridges burn
When I said goodbye to Lodibar never to return
Chorus:
Mophibosheth, forever put your fears to rest
Come and be my table guest
To you I'll be a father and my son you'll always be
Mophibosheth, please accept the invitation
I've made all the preparation
Mophibosheth cried, Oh how can this be?
That a king could ever love someone
How could he ever love someone?
It's good to know He loves someone like me
Like me
