1 Draw near and take the Body of your Lord,
And drink with faith the Blood for you out-poured.

2 Saved by Christ's Body and his holy Blood,
With souls refreshed we give our thanks to God.

3 Christ, our Redeemer, God's eternal Son,
Has by his cross and blood the vict'ry won.

4 He spent his life for greatest and for least.
Praise Christ the Paschal Victim, Christ the Priest.

5 Let us approach with faithful hearts sincere
And claim the promise of salvation here.

6 Christ rules our hearts, and all his saints defends;
He gives believers life that never ends.

7 With heav'nly bread Christ makes the hungry whole;
His living water fills the thirsting soul.

8 AlphaOmega, unto whom shall bow
All nations of the earth, be with us now.
