Christ bids us break the bread
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 26:26-29 Lyrics: 1 Christ bids us break the bread
and share the cup he gave,
in token of the blood he shed
for those he died to save.
2 It was for us he came,
to bear, by human birth,
a crown of thorn, a cross of shame,
for every child of earth.
3 The Saviour crucified
in glory rose again:
we here remember him who died,
ascended now to reign.
4 Our hearts his word obey,
in thankfulness and love:
we feed on Christ by faith today
and feast with him above.
5 O Christ, once lifted up
that we might be forgiven,
we take the bread and drink the cup
and share the life of heaven. Topics: Atonement; Church Year Good Friday; Church Year Easter; Church Year Ascension; Heaven; Holy Communion; Jesus Life and Ministry; Obedience Used With Tune: EASTVILLE

Drawn from Immanuel's veins,
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains:
Lose all their guilty stains,
Lose all their guilty stains;
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.
2 The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day,
And there may I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away:
Wash all my sins away,
Wash all my sins away;
And there may I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away.
3 Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its pow'r,
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved to sin no more:
Be saved, to sin no more,
Be saved to sin no more;
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved to sin no more.
4 E'er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be till I die:
And shall be till I die,
And shall be till I die;
Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be till I die. Topics: Cleansing; Faith; Jesus Christ His Blood; Jesus Christ Shepherd and Lamb; Redemption; Salvation; Sin Used With Tune: CLEANSING FOUNTAIN

Alas, and Did My Savior Bleed
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2,341 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 26:28 Lyrics: 1. Alas, and did my Savior bleed
And did my Sov'reign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I?
2. Was it for crimes that I had done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity, grace unknown,
And love beyond degree!
3. Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut His glories in,
When Christ the mighty Maker died
For man, the creature's sin.
4. But drops of grief can ne'er repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord, I give myself away,
'Tis all that I can do. Used With Tune: AVON

the darkness deepens: Lord, with me abide!
When other helpers fail, and comforts flee,
help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
change and decay in all around I see:
O Lord who changes not, abide with me.
3 I need your presence every passing hour;
what but your grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who, like yourself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
4 I fear no foe, with you at hand to bless;
ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, your victory?
I triumph still, if you abide with me.
5 Hold now your cross before my closing eyes;
shine through the gloom and point me to the skies:
heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Used With Tune: EVENTIDE

"Christian, love me more than these."

And I shall find my peace,
My all in all.

In Galilee;

Then, vict'ry won,
I shall behold Thee, Lord,
