Fred Hammond - Communion Song lyrics

rate me

Verse

Now we are gathered here

This time is sanctified

We drink of the wine and eat the bread

For our iniquities his body was bruised

And for our peace his blood was shed

But we gather not in sorrow

Chorus [1]

To commemorate

Verse

That he died to bring us

Back to the father

What you must realize

Each time you eat the bread

And drink of this cup

It must be said

That you agree with every word

That's in this deed

And that you embrace

The master's death

But its only to remind you

Chorus [2]

The law has been fulfilled

Verse

A new covenant abides

And that veil was broken

We're trapped no longer outside

Chorus [3] (repeat 2x)

So eat the bread

And drink the wine

We will have

Sweet Communion

He gave His life

Once for all time

So we can have

Sweet Communion

Voice

For I recieved from the Lord

What I also pass unto you:

The Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed

Took bread, and when He had given thanks

He broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you

do this in remembrance of me."

In the same way after supper He took the cup saying,

"This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, whenever

you drink, in remembrance of me. For whenever you eat this

bread and drink this cup you proclaim the Lord's death, until he

arose.

Chorus [3] 1x
