How glorious is the life above
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #591 (2010) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Sacraments and Other Occasions Holy Communion Lyrics: 1 How glorious is the life above,
which in this ordinance we taste;
that fullness of celestial love,
that joy which shall for ever last.
2 That heavenly life in Christ concealed
these earthen vessels could not bear;
the part which now we find revealed
no tongue of angels can declare.
3 The light of life eternal darts
into our souls a dazzling ray;
a drop of heaven o’erflows our hearts,
and deluges the house of clay.
4 Sure pledge of ecstasies unknown
shall this divine Communion be:
the ray shall rise into a sun,
the drop shall swell into a sea. Languages: English Tune Title: BROCKHAM

thy presence may we feel;
and, thus inspired with holy fear,
before thine altar kneel.

the blessings of thy love,
the streams that through the desert flow,
the manna from above.
3 We come, obedient to thy word,
to feast on heavenly food;
our meat the body of the Lord,
our drink his precious blood.
4 Thus may we all thy word obey,
for we, O God, are thine;
and go rejoicing on our way,
renewed with strength divine. Scripture: John 6:41 Languages: English Tune Title: ST FLAVIAN

and his people’s food to be,
with himself their souls regaling.

seraphim their brows concealing,
powers and principalities,
cry aloud, like thunder pealing.

1 O Lord Jesus, I adore thee
for the bread of worth untold
freely given in thy communion,

quickened into fruitfulness;
come, O come, life-giving Manna,
making glad my wilderness:
sweeter far than any sweetness
tongue can taste or words express.

in mine inmost heart to be,
thou and only thou suggesting
every thought and wish in me;

for a sacrifice to thee. Languages: English Tune Title: ST THOMAS (TRADITIONAL)
