Draw Near and Take the Body of Your Lord

Author: John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: Christian Worship #661 (2021) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Draw near and take the body of your Lord, and drink the holy blood for you outpoured. Saved by his body and his holy blood, with souls refreshed we give our thanks to God. 2 Christ our Redeemer, God’s eternal Son, has by his cross and blood the vict’ry won. He gave his life for greatest and for least, himself the off’ring and himself the priest. 3 Let us approach with faithful hearts sincere and take the pledges of salvation here. Christ, who in this life all the saints defends, gives all believers life that never ends. 4 With heav’nly bread he makes the hungry whole, gives living waters to the thirsting soul. Lord of the nations, to whom all must bow, in this great feast of love be with us now. Topics: Holy Communion Scripture: Mark 14:22-25 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 124TH

Author: Clifford Bax, b. 1886 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #348 (1958) Lyrics: 1 Turn back, O man, forswear thy foolish ways. Old now is earth, and none may count her days, Yet thou, her child, whose head is crowned with flame, Still wilt not hear thine inner God proclaim, 'Turn back, O man, forswear thy foolish ways.' 2 Earth might be fair, and all men glad and wise. Age after age their tragic empires rise, Built while they dream, and in that dreaming weep: Would man but wake from out his haunted sleep, Earth might be fair, and all men glad and wise. 3 Earth shall be fair, and all her people one; Nor till that hour shall God's whole will be done. Now, even now, once more from earth to sky, Peals forth in joy man's old, undaunted cry, 'Earth shall be fair, and all her folk be one!'

All who praise God with unaffected joy Give back to us the wisdom we destroy, Give back to us the wisdom we destroy. 2 God is our Song, for Jesus comes to save; While praising Him we offer all we have. New songs we sing, in ventures new unite, When Jesus leads us upward into light, When Jesus leads us upward into light. 3 This is the Song no conflict ever drowns; Who praises God our human wrath disowns. Love knows what rich complexities of sound God builds upon a simple common ground, God builds upon a simple common ground. 4 God is our Silence when no songs are sung, When ecstasy or sorrow stills the tongue. Glorious the faith which silently obeys Until we find again the voice of praise, Until we find again the voice of praise. Scripture: Psalm 118:14 Tune Title: OLD 124th
