316. Jesus Christ, Our Blessed Savior

1 Jesus Christ, our blessed Savior,
Turned away God's wrath forever;
By His bitter grief and woe
He saved us from the evil foe.

3 Whoso to this Board repaireth
May take heed how he prepareth;
For if he does not believe,
Then death for life he shall recieve.

5 Thou shalt hold with faith unshaken
That this food is to be taken
By the sick who are distressed
By hearts that long for peace and rest.

7 "Useless were for thee My Passion
If thy works thy weal could fashion.
This feast is not spread for thee
If thine own savior thou wilt be."
