Lyrics
Verse 1
O Lord, we praise Thee, bless Thee, and adore Thee, in thanksgiving bow before Thee
Thou with Thy body and Thy blood didst nourish our weak souls that they may flourish:
O Lord, have mercy! may Thy body, Lord, born of Mary, that our sins and sorrows did carry,
And Thy blood for us plead in all trial, fear, and need: O Lord, have mercy!
Verse 2
Thy holy body into death was given, life to win for us in heaven.
No greater love than this to Thee could bind us; may this feast thereof remind us!
O Lord, have mercy! Lord, Thy kindness did so constrain Thee that Thy blood should bless and sustain me.
All our debt Thou hast paid; peace with God once more is made: O Lord, have mercy.
Verse 3
May God bestow on us His grace and favor to please Him with our behavior
And live as brethren here in love and union nor repent this blest Communion!
O Lord, have mercy! Let not Thy good Spirit forsake us; grant that heav'nly minded He make us;
Give Thy Church, Lord, to see days of peace and unity: O Lord, have mercy!...
