(Invitation)
"The time has come for the wedding feast
On the holy mountain of the Lord!"
Go and tell it on the highway,
in ev'ry hidden byway!
And let all who hear the call
come into his banquet hall!

(Passing of the Bread)
The bread we eat is the Living Bread,
Broken for the life of the world.
In the desert we are given
the Manna sent from heaven;
And by faith our souls are fed
with the True and Living Bread.

(Passing of the Cup)
The wine we drink is new cov'nant wine--
Sweeter than the world has ever known!
By the blood of our dear Savior
God grants to us his favor,
And he seals it with a sign
in the cup of cov'nant wine.

(Dismissal)
Now rise and sing with a grateful heart,
Strengthened by the mercies of the Lord!
For his blood and body broken
we've tasted in a token
Of the feast of joy and love
in the courts of heav'n above!
