Author: Fred Kaan (b. 1929) Hymnal: New Church Praise #70 (1975) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: New Church Praise Lyrics: 1 Now let us from this table rise
renewed in body, mind and soul;
with Christ we die and live again,
his selfless love has made us whole.
2 With minds alert, upheld by grace,
to spread the Word in speech and deed,
we follow in the steps of Christ,
at one with man in hope and need.
3 To fill each human house with love,
it is the sacrament of care;
the work that Christ began to do
we humbly pledge ourselves to share.
4 Then grant us courage, father God,
to choose again the pilgrim way,
and help us to accept with joy
the challenge of tomorrow's day. Topics: Communion After Communion Languages: English Tune Title: SOLOTHURN
