For Bread before Us Broken

Representative Text

1 For bread before us broken,
for wine before us poured,
for words which you have spoken,
we give you thanks, O Lord.
In prayer that we'll be strengthened
and be again restored,
in faith that you will aid us,
we seek your table, Lord.

2 We join in solemn promise,
here at this holy board,
that we may be more worthy
to have your Spirit, Lord.
For service now endow us,
assured of watch and ward,
and send us forth united
to build your kingdom, Lord.
