Communion

I take the cup as You tell me to
I think as I drink it of what you did do
My heart feels, to me, like it's tearing
Can people see that in the face that I'm wearing?
I can almost see you, hung... dying there
And see Your face loving, my heart fills with dispare
I know it's because you did it for me
my heart blackened by sin you cleansed and set free
In a moment - upon yourslef you took sin
And then your poor heart became troubled within.
Once innocent of evil and pure of heart,
You lost this innocence by doing your part
This bread is a reminder to all who believe,
That You bore our sin, to this truth we must cleave.

I take the wine as you tell me to
I think as I drink it of what you did do
A shiver of joy flows over me
And I rejoice that your death wasn't Satan's victory
I'm reminded in Communion of not only this
but also - as I put the cup to my lips
You live, and you have triumphed o'er sin.
You give me real life and now live within
You broke your body for me, now please Lord
Use mine.
And the blood that you poured out was more than a sign
The life blood of Jesus was given to me
The Life of Jesus, now lives in and through me.
