Communion Song Lyrics - Singles - Fred Hammond

Now we are gathered here 

This time is sanctified 

We drink of the rain and eat the bread 

For our iniquities his body was bruised 

And for our peace his blood was shed 

But we gather not in sorrow 

To commemorate ah 

That he died to bring us 

Back to the father 

What you must realize 

Its time to eat the bread 

And drink against of 

The bonds was set 

That you agree with every word 

That's in this eat 

And that you embrace the masters hand 

But its only to remind you 

The law has been fulfilled (ah) 

A new covenant abides 

And that held is broken 

We're trapped no longer inside 

So eat the bread 

And drink the wine 

So we can have 

Sweet Communion 

He gave his life 

Once for all time 

So we can have 

Sweet Communion 

So eat the bread 

And drink the wine 

So we can have 

Sweet Communion 

He gave his life 

Once for all time 

So we can have 

Sweet Communion 

For I received from the Lord 

What I also pass unto you 

The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed 

Took bread, and when he had given thanks 

He broke it and said, 

"This is my body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me." 

In the same way after supper, he took the cup, saying 

"This cup is the new covenant in my blood 

Do this whenever you drink in remembrance of me 

For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup 

You proclaim the Lord's dad until he comes.
