Baynes Meter: 7.7.7 Appears in 94 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesu, to Thy table led, Now let every heart be fed With the true and living bread. 2 While in penitence we kneel, Thy blest presence let us feel, All Thy wondrous love reveal. 3 While on Thy dear cross we gaze, Mourning o'er our sinful ways, Turn our sadness into praise. 4 When we taste the mystic wine, Of Thine outpoured blood the sign; Fill our hearts with love divine. 5 Draw us to Thy wounded side, Whence there flowed the healing tide; There our sins and sorrows hide. 6 From the bonds of sin release, Cold and wavering faith increase; Lamb of God, grant us Thy peace. 7 Lead us by Thy piercèd hand, Till around Thy throne we stand In the bright and better land. Amen. Topics: Holy Communion Used With Tune: LACRYMAE
