Lyics

THE rich memorials of thy grief,

The suff'rings of thy death,

We come, blest Saviour, to receive,

But would receive with faith.



The tokens sent us to relieve

Our spirits, when they droop,

We come, blest Saviour, to receive,

But would receive with hope.



The pledges thou wast pleas'd to leave,

Our mournful minds to move,

We come, blest Saviour, to receive

But would receive with love.



Here, in obedience to thy word,

We take the bread and wine;

The utmost we can do, blest Lord,

For all beyond is thine.



Increase our faith, and hope, and love;

Lord, give us all that's good:

We would thy full salvation prove,

And share thy flesh and blood.
