Here proclaim the glorious mystery

Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935); St Thomas Aquinas (c. 1225-1274) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Scripture Lyrics: 1 Here proclaim the glorious mystery of the body and the blood; formed within the womb, made human, he the earth's transcendent Lord; offered for the world's redemption, promise of eternal good. 2 On the night of that last supper, there reclining with his friends, met to celebrate Passover, eating as the law demands: he, as food for his disciples, gives himself from his own hands. 3 Word made flesh, by word is making simple bread his flesh, and we here discern Christ's blood, though senses nothing more than wine can see: faith alone, true hearts sustaining, can perceive the mystery. 4 Therefore we, with deepest reverence, celebrate this sacrament; finding all the ancient scriptures sealed in his new covenant; what the senses fail to fathom, faith receives as nourishment. 5 Praise and worship to the Father, power and blessing to the Son, honour to the Holy Spirit, glory to the Three in One; let the Church proclaim for ever what eternal Love has done.
