COMMUNION
Heaven we can hold
Is something of our own
The bread, the Host, the holy of holies
Is sweetness at our feet
This hunger in our bones
It aches to be made whole
The Lamb, the Lord, the Bridegroom of Heaven
The One thing that we need
Up to the altar,
Down on my knees
You are the manna that’s waiting for me
I’ve tasted and seen, You’ve made me complete
I’m filled with Your presence
I’m drunk on Your spirit
My soul shall be healed, I’m here to receive
All I want is Your fullness, Your goodness, Your memory
It’s just you and me
Wine stained on our doors
Inviting us to more
The cup, the Covenant, blood of salvation
Poured out for you and me
Up to the altar,
Down on my knees
Your veins are the vine bringing life out of me
Bone, blood,
Simple made divine
Bread, wine,
Come be this heart of mine
We’ve tasted and seen, You’ve made us complete
We’re filled with Your presence
We’re drunk on Your spirit
My soul shall be healed, I’m here to receive
All I want is Your fullness, Your goodness, Your memory
It’s just you and me
Eucharist is ....
