The Kingdom, Op. 51: Vb. The Upper Room (Give thanks first for the Cup)

Give thanks first for the Cup. We thank Thee, our Father, for the Holy Vine. Peter Give thanks for the Broken Bread. We thank Thee, our Father, for the Life and Knowledge. As this Broken Bread was grain scattered upon the mountains, and gathered together became one, so may Thy Church be gathered together from the bounds of the earth into Thy Kingdom. Our Father, Which art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: for Thine is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory for ever and ever, Amen. Ye have received the Spirit of adoption. whereby we cry, Abba, Father. Thou, O Lord, art our Father, our Redeemer, and we are Thine.
