According to Thy Gracious Word

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 551 hymnals Scripture: Luke 22:19-20 Lyrics: 1 According to thy gracious word, in meek humility this will I do, my loving Lord: I will remember thee. 2 Thy body, given for my sake, my bread from heaven shall be; thy testamental cup I take, and thus remember thee. 3 Gethsemane can I forget, or there thy conflict see, thine agony and bloody sweat, and not remember thee? 4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes and rest on Calvary, O Lamb of God, my sacrifice, I must remember thee. 5 And when these failing lips grow dumb, and mind and memory flee, when thou shalt in thy kingdom come, then, Lord, remember me.

Hymn 6

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 145 hymnals Scripture: Luke 22:19 First Line: Jesus is gone above the skies Lyrics: Jesus is gone above the skies, Where our weak senses reach him not; And carnal objects court our eyes, To thrust our Savior from our thought. He knows what wand'ring hearts we have, Apt to forget his lovely face; And, to refresh our minds, he gave These kind memorials of his grace. The Lord of life this table spread With his own flesh and dying blood; We on the rich provision feed, And taste the wine, and bless the God. Let sinful sweets be all forgot, And earth grow less in our esteem Christ and his love fill every thought, And faith and hope be fixed on him. While he is absent from our sight, 'Tis to prepare our souls a place, That we may dwell in heav'nly light, And live for ever near his face. [Our eyes look upwards to the hills Whence our returning Lord shall come; We wait thy chariot's awful wheels, To fetch our longing spirits home.]

Here let us feast and, feasting, still prolong the fellowship of living wine and bread. 4 Too soon we rise; the symbols disappear. The feast, though not the love, is past and gone; the bread and wine remove, but you are here, nearer than ever, still our shield and sun. 5 Feast after feast thus comes and passes by, yet, passing, points to that glad feast above, giving sweet foretaste of the festal joy, the Lamb's great bridal feast of bliss and love.

Now, my tongue, the mystery telling

Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 52 hymnals Scripture: Luke 22:14-20 Lyrics: 1 Now, my tongue, the mystery telling of the glorious body sing, and the blood, all price excelling, which the world's great Lord and King, in a virgin's womb once dwelling, shed for this world's ransoming. 2 That last night, at supper lying, with the Twelve, his chosen band, Jesus, with the law complying, keeps the feast its rites demand; then, more precious food supplying, gives himself with his own hand. 3 Word-made-flesh! his word is making earthly bread his flesh to be, wine his blood; and all partaking should from sinful thoughts be free. Faith alone, sight's limits breaking, show true hearts the mystery. 4 Therefore we, before him bending, this great sacrament revere; older rituals have their ending, for the newer rite is here; faith, our outward sense befriending, makes our inner vision clear. 5 Unto God be praise and honour: to the Father, to the Son, to the mighty Spirit, glory, ever Three and ever One: power and glory in the highest while eternal ages run.
