<p>Sing, my tongue, the Savior’s glory,<br>
|
|
Of His flesh the mystery sing,<br>
|
|
Of the blood, all price exceeding,<br>
|
|
Shed by our immortal King,<br>
|
|
Destined, for the world’s redemption,<br>
|
|
From a noble womb to spring.</p>
|
|
<p>Of a pure and spotless virgin,<br>
|
|
Born for us, His love to show,<br>
|
|
He, as man, with man conversing,<br>
|
|
Stayed, the seeds of truth to sow;<br>
|
|
Then He closed in wondrous fashion,<br>
|
|
This His life on earth below.</p>
|
|
<p>On the night of that Last Supper,<br>
|
|
Seated with His chosen band,<br>
|
|
He, the paschal victim eating,<br>
|
|
First fulfills the law’s command;<br>
|
|
Then as food to all His brethren<br>
|
|
Gives Himself with His own hand.</p>
|
|
<p>Christ, the Word made Flesh, by speaking,<br>
|
|
Earthly bread to flesh He turns;<br>
|
|
Wine becomes His blood so precious—<br>
|
|
Unconceived in human terms!<br>
|
|
Hearts sincere perceive this marvel;<br>
|
|
Faith its lessons quickly learns.</p>
|
|
<p>Down in adoration falling,<br>
|
|
This great sacrament we hail;<br>
|
|
Over ancient forms of worship<br>
|
|
Newer rites of grace prevail;<br>
|
|
Faith tells us that Christ is present<br>
|
|
When our human senses fail.</p>
|
|
<p>To the everlasting Father,<br>
|
|
And the Son Who made us free,<br>
|
|
And the Spirit, God proceeding,<br>
|
|
From them each eternally,<br>
|
|
Be salvation, honor, blessing,<br>
|
|
Might and endless majesty.</p>
