Witness To The World

Tune: Solothurn

(\'Now let us from this table rise\')

********

Communion ended once more

We have partaken of Christ\'s store

The bread and wine, His body, blood

Nourishing food and cleansing flood

 

Grant as we have humbly partook

Of your gifts, you not us forsook

So may we faithful to you be

Fill us with your Spirit, e\'en me

 

Not detached from life, but living

In the world for you, God and King

Of our lives be, help us witness

Share you with others and them bless

 

So being fruitful, productive

To serve, to be served, thus to live

And to your will know, do reveal

Send us out to teach, preach, and heal

 

And here our source, \'tis you our Lord

Shown to us here, the living Word

Love as the centre of this feast

Open to all, greatest and least

 

We pray when we return again

To share in these symbols, that then

May we something for your glory

[Have] Done or said for eternity
