220--When on Thy table, Lord, we gaze,

When on Thy table, Lord, we gaze,

220

	1.	When on Thy table, Lord, we gaze,
		We marvel at the signs:
		A loaf of bread, a cup of wine,
		Displayed as God designs.
	2.	The loaf portrays the bread of life
		As heav'nly food to us,
		Imparted by Thy mystic death
		That we may share Thee thus.
	3.	The portion is the cup divine,
		Composed of Jesus' blood;
		This cup of blessing we receive
		And gain what is of God.
	4.	We eat of Thee, the Bread of life,
		By sharing here this bread;
		Thus we remember Thee in love
		And with Thyself are fed.
	5.	We all enjoy the blessings gained
		By drinking of this cup;
		Thus we remember Thee with joy,
		Till we are taken up.
	6.	By feasting on this bread and cup
		Thy death we now declare,
		And testify Thou art our life
		And all we daily share.
	7.	We're waiting for that glorious hour,
		When in the fullest way
		We'll feed on Thee and feast with Thee
		And worship Thee for aye.
