Easter Communion
In my hand a waferSymbol of my Lord
Whose flesh was bruised and broken
As written in God's Word.
Instinctively my other hand
Completely covered it
As such a precious treasure
Should be protected
And cherished.
In my hand the symbol
Of His Sacred Blood
Freely poured on Calvary
To cleanse this heart of mine.
With my lips I humbly
With unworthiness
Accept this Gift of love,
Which makes me holy.
In my heart a flame of love
And gratitude to God
For His Son, my Saviour
Who lived and died
And lives again
For all - for you - for me!
In my spirit oneness
With the Spirit of God
Christ's sacrifice the connection
Drawing us together
In mutual love.
