Lyrics
For the bread which you have broken,
for the wine which you have poured,
For the words which you have spoken,
Now we give you thanks, O Lord.
By this pledge that you do love us,
By the gift of peace restored,
By your call to heaven above us,
Hallow all our lives, O Lord.
In your service, Lord, defend us,
In our hearts keep watch and ward,
In the world where you do send us,
Let your kingdom come, O Lord.
