Communion Song

Now we are gathered here This time is sanctified To 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 but (to commemorate) 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 it's only to remind you (The law has been fulfilled) A new covenant abides And the veil is broken We're trapped no longer inside So eat the bread (so eat the bread) And drink the wine (drink the wine) And we'll have Sweet Communion (Sweet Communion) So eat the bread (so eat the bread) And drink the wine (drink the wine) And we'll have Sweet Communion (we'll have Sweet Communion) He gave his life (Once for all time) once for all time So we can have Sweet Communion Oh Lord, oh Lord So eat the bread (thank you God) And drink the wine (Sending your son to die) And we'll have Sweet Communion (thank you father) (Thank you father) For I received from the Lord What I also passed 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" So eat the bread And drink the wine And we'll have Sweet Communion He gave his life Once for all time So we can have Sweet Communion
