114. Communion Hymn

1 By Christ redeemed, in Christ restored,
We meet at this memorial board,
And show the death of our dear Lord
Until he come in glory.

2 His body broken in our stead
Is here remembered in this bread;
And so by faith our souls are fed
Until he come in glory.

3 The drops of His great agony,
His life blood shed for us, we see;
This wine shall keep the memory
Until he come in glory.

4 And so that dark betrayal night,
With His returning we unite,
By one long chain of loving rite,
Until he come in glory.

5 O Blessed Hope, with this elate,
Let not our hearts be desolate,
But, strong in faith, in patience wait
Until he come in glory.
