1. See the table spread before you,
See the feast of bread and wine:
These are symbols of our Savior,
Tokens of His love divine.
Bread that’s broken is His body,
Crushed beneath the wrath of God:
Wine poured out is a reminder,
Of our Savior’s precious blood.

2. Children of our God remember
How He bought your soul and mine:
In remembrance of our Savior,
Eat the bread and drink the wine.
Jesus came the God incarnate,
To fulfill God’s holy law:
On the cross He made atonement,
And retrieved us from the fall.

3. Let us ne’er forget the promise,
Jesus made to come again:
Soon He comes, our King to call us,
Home to glory – Praise His name!
With this hope and expectation,
We rejoice to keep this feast,
Celebrating our redemption,
Till we lean on Jesus’ breast.
