’Twas On That Night When Doomed To Know
The Eager Rage Of Every Foe,
That Night In Which He Was Betrayed,
The Saviour Of The World Took Bread;
And, After Thanks And Glory Given
To Him That Rules In Earth And Heaven,
That Symbol Of His Flesh He Broke,
And Thus To All His Followers Spoke:
My Broken Body Thus I Give
To You, My Friends; Take, Eat, And Live;
And Oft The Sacred Feast Renew,
That Brings My Wondrous Love To View.
Then In His Hands The Cup He Raised,
And God Anew He Thanked And Praised;
While Kindness In His Bosom Glowed,
And From His Lips Salvation Flowed.
My Blood I Thus Pour Forth, He Cries,
To Cleanse The Soul In Sin That Lies;
In This The Covenant Is Sealed,
And Heaven’s Eternal Grace Revealed.
This Cup Is Fraught With Love To Men;
Let All Partake Who Love My Name;
Through Latest Ages Let It Pour
In Memory Of My Dying Hour.
