This is Thy Feast (E. Milner-White)

+





LORD, THIS IS THY FEAST, 

prepared by thy longing, 
spread at thy command,
 attended at thine invitation,
blessed by thine own Word, 
distributed by thine own hand; 
the undying memorial of thy sacrifice upon the Cross,
the full gift of thine everlasting love, 
and its perpetuation till time shall end.

Lord, this is the Bread of Heaven, the Bread of Life 
that whosoever eateth never shall hunger more. 
And this the Cup of pardon, healing, gladness, strength, 
that whosoever drinketh thirsteth not again.
So may we come Lord, to thy table. 
Lord Jesus, come to us. Amen.


Eric Milner-White

O Lord, save the World.
