Author: John Mason Neale Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #187 (1917) Meter: 10.10 Lyrics: 1 Draw nigh and take the Body of the Lord,
And drink the holy Blood for you outpoured.
2 Offered was He for greatest and for least,
Himself the Victim and Himself the Priest.
3 He that His saints in this world rules and shields,
To all believers life eternal yields;
4 With heavenly bread makes them that hunger whole,
Gives living waters to the thirsting soul.
5 Approach ye then with faithful hearts sincere,
And take the pledges of salvation here.
6 The Judge Eternal, unto Whom shall bow
All nations at the last, is with us now.
Amen. Topics: The Holy Communion Languages: English Tune Title: COENA DOMINI
