Lyrics

The cup of blessing which we bless
Is this not a sharing in the blood of Christ?
This cup is a promise in the blood of the Lamb.
Drink it in remembrance of him.

The bread which we break, a body broken,
Is this not a sharing in the Body of Christ?
One bread, one body,
One cup, one promise,
Signs of the Grace of Our Lord, Jesus Christ,
God's love, and the blessing of the Holy Spirit.
