Author: John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: Worship (4th ed.) #947 (2011) Meter: 10.10 Lyrics: 1 Draw near and take the Body of your Lord,
And drink with faith the Blood for you out-poured.
2 Saved by Christ's Body and his holy Blood,
With souls refreshed we give our thanks to God.
3 Christ, our Redeemer, God's eternal Son,
Has by his cross and blood the vict'ry won.
4 He spent his life for greatest and for least.
Praise Christ the Paschal Victim, Christ the Priest.
5 Let us approach with faithful hearts sincere
And claim the promise of salvation here.
6 Christ rules our hearts, and all his saints defends;
He gives believers life that never ends.
7 With heav'nly bread Christ makes the hungry whole;
His living water fills the thirsting soul.
8 AlphaOmega, unto whom shall bow
All nations of the earth, be with us now. Topics: Eucharist Languages: English Tune Title: COENA DOMINI
