Jesus in­vites His saints
To meet around His board;
Here par­doned re­bels sit and hold
Communion with their Lord.

For food He gave His flesh,
He bids us drink His blood;
Amazing fa­vor! match­less grace
Of our des­cend­ing God!

This ho­ly bread and wine
Maintains our faint­ing breath,
By un­ion with our liv­ing Lord,
And in­ter­est in His death.

Our heav’n­ly Fa­ther calls
Christ and His mem­bers one;
We the young child­ren of His love,
And He the first-born Son.

We are but se­ver­al parts
Of the same brok­en bread;
One bo­dy hath its se­ver­al limbs,
But Je­sus is the Head.

Let all our pow­ers be joined
His glo­ri­ous name to raise;
Pleasure and love fill ev­ery mind,
And ev­ery voice be praise.
