Remembering in Bread and Wine (YC No 177)
Remember in the bread and wine
Remember in the bread and wine
That meal so long ago,
That meal so long ago,
When Jesus said his last farewell
When Jesus said his last farewell
Before he faced his foe.
Before he faced his foe.
Remember in the bread and wine
Remember in the bread and wine
The brokenness of one
The brokenness of one
Whose dream was shattered by the world
Whose dream was shattered by the world
That crushed what he’d begun.
That crushed what he’d begun.
Remember in the bread and wine
Remember in the bread and wine
He poured out all his life
He poured out all his life
In service and humility,
In service and humility,
Amidst advancing strife.
Amidst advancing strife.
Remember in the bread and wine
Remember in the bread and wine
His bold integrity;
His bold integrity;
He would not compromise himself;
He would not compromise himself;
He went to Calvary.
He went to Calvary.
And as we take this bread and wine
And as we take this bread and wine
Remember Jesus gives
Remember Jesus gives
A challenge, now, to be God’s love;
A challenge, now, to be God’s love;
To show that Christ still lives.
To show that Christ still lives.
