The Lord’s Supper. 1 Cor. 5. 11; Luke 22. 19, 20; 1 Cor. 11. 23-28
1
Once more, like children, we are come,
 
To banquet with our God;
 
May each one feel himself at home,
 
And feast upon thy love.
2
While we receive the bread and wine,
 
As emblems of thy death,
 
Lord, raise each soul above the sign,
 
To feast on Christ by faith.
3
[We would not come as strangers, Lord,
 
Who only see the sign,
 
But, as the objects of Christ’s love,
 
Would feel we’re one in him.]
4
Like free-born sons, we would be free
 
From every legal chain;
 
Praise him who brought our liberty,
 
And ever with him reign.
