'Twas on that night

the eager rage of every foe,
that night in which he was betrayed,

to God who rules in earth and heaven,
that symbol of his flesh he broke,
and thus to all his followers spoke:
3 "My broken body thus I give
for you, for all; take, eat and live;
and oft the sacred rite renew
that brings my saving love to view."
4 Then in his hands the cup he raised
and God anew he thanked and praised;
the fullness of God's grace he showed,
and from his lips salvation flowed.
5 "My blood I thus pour forth," he cries,
"to cleanse the soul in sin that lies;
in this the covenant is sealed,
and heaven's eternal grace revealed.

let all partake the wine of heaven,
and when you gather, let it pour
in living memory of this hour." Scripture: Matthew 26:26-29 Used With Tune: ROCKINGHAM Text Sources: Scottish Paraphrases, alt.

Baptized into Your Name Most Holy
Author: Johann J. Rambach; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 45 hymnals Topics: Covenant of Grace Lyrics: 1 Baptized into your name most holy,
O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
I claim a place, though weak and lowly,
among your seed, your chosen host.
Buried with Christ, and dead to sin:
your Spirit e'er shall live within.
2 My loving Father, me you've taken
fore'er to be your child and heir;
my faithful Savior, me you've given
your righteous, holy life to share;
O Holy Spirit, you will be a comfort,
guide, and help to me.
3 And I have vowed to fear and love you,
and to obey you, Lord, alone;
because the Holy Spirit moved me
I dared to pledge myself your own,
renouncing sin to keep the faith,
and war with evil unto death.
4 My faithful God, your Word fails never,
your cov'nant surely will abide;
oh, cast me not away forever,
should I transgress it on my side!
Though I have oft my soul defiled,
in love forgive, restore your child.
5 Yes, all I am and love most dearly
I offer now, O Lord, to you.
Oh, let me make my vows sincerely,
and what I say, help me to do.
Let naught within me, naught I own,
serve any will but yours alone.
6 And never let my purpose falter,
O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
but keep me faithful to your altar,
till you shall call me from my post.
So unto you I live and die,
and praise you evermore on high.

his sovereign right assert,
and take up every thankful song

your easy yoke to prove,
and own it perfect liberty
to serve the Lord we love.

fulfil our hearts’ desire;
and let us to thy glory live
and in thy cause expire.

with joy we render thee
our all, no longer ours, but Thine,
to all eternity.

Sound we Thy praises high,
And joyful sing.

Who to Thy Church belong,
Unite to swell the song
To Christ our king. Used With Tune: TRINITY (ITALIAN HYMN)
