As the Disciples, When Thy Son Had Left Them

Author: Percy Dearmer Meter: 11.11.11.5 Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As the disciples, when thy Son had left them, met in a lovefeast, joyfully conversing, all the stored mem'ry of the Lord's last Supper fondly rehearsing, 2 so may we here, who gather now in friendship, seek for the spirit of those earlier churches, welcoming him who stand and for an entrance patiently searches. 3 As, when their converse closed, and supper ended, taking the bread and wine, they make thanksgiving, breaking and blessing, thus to have communion with Christ the living, 4 so may we here, united in one Body, make this our lovefeast and commemoration, that in his Spirit, we may have more worthy participation. 5 And, as they prayer and sang to thee rejoicing, ere in the nightfall they embraced and parted, in their hearts singing as they journeyed homeward, brave and true-hearted, 6 so, may we here, like grain that once was scattered over a hillside, now one bread united, led by the Spirit, do thy work rejoicing, lamps filled and lighted.
