They gather there, for all who later come,
At table where for us a Supper spread—
The first where bread His Body will become,
And wine will be His Blood that’s for us shed.
Creation is made new for all that night
As Body, Blood are fruit comes from His Cross
Where His humility shows forth His might,
And pride is slain as Devil’s cause is lost.
At Mass is Body, Blood of Crucified
Raised from His death in Resurrected Life,
And sin-infected old creation dies
As Risen Son on earth shines heaven’s light.
His Body, Blood come on Passover Eve
Where His life gives to us a full reprieve.
