Christ the Lord, Who Calls Us

Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Christ the Lord, who calls us by his loving grace, meets us at his table, gives to each a place; everyone who trusts him here becomes his guest at this meal most costly, holiest, and best. 2 Once he gave his body on a cross of wood; now he lives to bless us with his precious food: "Do this" he commanded, "to remember me": let us taste his goodness, his salvation see. 3 By this loaf now broken, by this cup of wine, Christ provides his people with his gracious sign; joining in one body, all may take one bread, sharing in one Spirit, governed by one Head. 4 All the host of heaven join our thankful song; saints, apostles, prophets, all the martyr throng; with the holy angels let his church proclaim his atoning mercy, his unrivaled name. 5 Christ be all our glory till he comes again; by his death we conquer, by his life we reign: Christ who made us welcome, Christ who calls us friends, shall receive our worship, praise that never ends.
