Published in 3 hymnals

Representative Text

1 Let us enter into covenant with Christ,
celebrating the eucharist of love.
Take a little bread and wine,
lift up the chalice of the King.

Refrain:
Alleluia! It’s a sign of love!
Alleluia! It’s a sign of peace!
Alleluia! It’s the mystery of faith!
Alleluia! Amen!

2 Take the body and the blood of Christ,
in divine revelation of his love.
Be transformed, O my people, from your sins,
and eat and drink and live! [Refrain]

3 He is lifted to the throne on high
and will come again to rule all the world.
The saints who sleep in Christ shall rise.
Rejoice, O Zion, and be glad! [Refrain]

4 Jesus Christ is the Lamb of God
who takes away the sin of the world.
'He who comes to me
I shall not turn away.' [Refrain]

5 Come, you faithful, to the paradise of God,
to the marriage feast of the Lamb.
Eat manna from the tree of life;
you are washed in the blood of Christ! [Refrain]
