- 1Jesus invites His saints
- To meet around His board:
- Here those He died to save may hold
- Communion with their Lord.
- 2Our heavenly Father calls
- Christ and His members one:
- We are the children of His Love,
- And He the first-born Son.
- 3We are but several parts
- Of the same broken bread;
- One body with its several limbs,
- But Jesus is the Head.
- 4Let all our powers be joined,
- His glorious Name to raise:
- Pleasure and love fill every mind,
- And every voice be praise!
