One Cup, One Bread

Lent starts tomorrow! And this Sunday is the Holy Communion Sunday. I am looking forward to having the Communion. It is a true blessing that we can be a member of Christ's family at His table. The chancel choir will praise " One Cup, One bread" as our anthem. It is from our Lenten Cantata "At the Ninth Hour". Jesus washed our feet and served the cup and bread for us. And told us to remember Him by doing same as he did for us. Let's serve each other and share God's grace as one family. Here is the text.

One cup, one bread, one promise in the Word, he said. One hour to recall one life; one life poured out for all. Come to the table, all hearts that are dry, and drink of the Spirit he gives, for only the love of the Lamb satisfies the thirst where our loneliness lives. Come to the table, hearts that are full, rejoice with your Savior and friend. Sing of forgiveness that makes us whole, a promise of life without end. Come to the table, all you who are weak, let hearches be lightened by grace. Come to the table, you who are strong, be humbled to meet face to face.Come with your faith, come with your doubt, be healed by the same
