510. My God, your table now is spread

1 My God, your table now is spread,
your cup with love will overflow;
be all your children to it led,
and let them all its sweetness know.

2 A sacred feast which Jesus makes,
rich banquet of his flesh and blood!
How happy those who here partake
that sacred stream, that heavenly food.

3 Still let your table honoured be,
and furnished well with joyful guests;
and may each soul salvation see
that here its sacred pledges tastes.
