Lyrics
O day of sweet communion, In wisdom set apart. We consecrate our all, dear Lord, In humbleness of heart. As seen in old Judea, On the shores of Galilee, When our Lord
and his disciples, Communed beside the sea. And as they were eating, Jesus took bread and blessed it, and break it, and gave it to the disciples; And said, Take, eat,
This is my body. And he took the cup and gave thanks, And gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it. That bright and joyful morning, They drank the spiritual wine; and cast
aside each earthly load, To grasp the Truth divine. Their bread which came from heaven, Their Master blessed and gave To celebrate in memory His vict’ry o’er the grave.
In pray’rful meditation, We bow in one accord, In honor of His holy name, Our Savior, the Christ, our Lord.
