When on Thy table, Lord, we gaze,

   We marvel at the signs:

A loaf of bread, a cup of wine,

   Displayed as God designs.

 2 

The loaf portrays the bread of life

   As heav'nly food to us,

Imparted by Thy mystic death

   That we may share Thee thus.

 3 

The portion is the cup divine,

   Composed of Jesus' blood;

This cup of blessing we receive

   And gain what is of God.

 4 

We eat of Thee, the Bread of life,

   By sharing here this bread;

Thus we remember Thee in love

   And with Thyself are fed.

 5 

We all enjoy the blessings gained

   By drinking of this cup;

Thus we remember Thee with joy,

   Till we are taken up.

 6 

By feasting on this bread and cup

   Thy death we now declare,

And testify Thou art our life

   And all we daily share.

 7 

We're waiting for that glorious hour,

   When in the fullest way

We'll feed on Thee and feast with Thee

   And worship Thee for aye.
