What You Gave Us for Our Taking

Author: John J. Ryan, 1893-1983 Hymnal: One in Faith #571 (2015) Meter: 8.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 What you gave us for our taking, Now as works of human making Let us, Lord, give back to you; Let us, Lord, give back to you. 2 These our gifts, by Christ made royal, Come from hearts contrite and loyal; Take them, Father, with our love; Take them, Father, with our love. 3 May this bread and may this wine, then, Born of earth, be made divine, when They become Christ's sacrifice; They become Christ's sacrifice. 4 So may foods that quench and nourish Change to make the spirit flourish, Pledge of heaven's feast of joy, Pledge of heaven's feast of joy.
