Oh,!
Precious Lord's supper, enliven me
Oh!
gift from Jesus my Lord, fill me,
How
am I to measure you, enliven me,
A
mystery too deep to fathom, fill me.
I lift up the cup to my lips, enliven me,
When the bread sets on my tongue, fill me,
When I surrender my love to you, enliven me,
Oh,! Mystery of mysteries, fill my being.
When I view the beautiful old picture above.
I gain a sense of the great magnitude
As
the monk envisioned it in 1502 AD
Now 500 years later, it is still powerful.
But the earthly vision, true as it did happen
Is out shined by the Giver of the gift.
Who died a horrible death on the cross
So we could be forgiven of our sins.
Who
left us a reminder of this great love
When He asked us to share in communion,
Yes, if we live an intimate life with Jesus
He lives within us all the time, praise God.
But
still it honors Him to honor His wish
And partake in this wonderful communion
Which binds us together, brother and sister
Sojourners on the earthly road to paradise.
Oh! Precious Lord's supper, enliven me
Oh! gift from Jesus my Lord, fill me,
How am I to measure you, enliven me,
A mystery too deep to fathom, fill me.
I
lift up the cup to my lips, enliven me,
When the bread sets on my tongue, fill me,
When I surrender my love to you, enliven me,
Oh,! Mystery of mysteries, fill my being.
Communion holy,
I take this Eurcharist, bread and
wine of heaven into me in this eurcharistic service. Oh! blessed Holy Communion like Jesus served at the last supper.
Receiving communion is always a wonderful experience for a Christian. Here we have communion picutured in a beautiful medieval
image art illustration that is a perfect setting for a Christian poem for Christ
