Our Redeemer Invited Us - Hymn Lyrics
Refrain:
Our Redeemer, invited us
To live by Him, who is above
Offering us, a new covenant
Part of His, amazing love
He took bread, and blessed it
He thanked the Father, and said
This is my Body, eat of It
Our Lord Jesus, broke the bread
He gave the cup, and also said:
“My covenant for life, now begins
This is my Blood, shed for you
For the remission, of sins”
This is the, heavenly Manna
Eating of it, shall give you life
It shall fill your, soul with peace
Perfection and, eternal
This is the, Bread of Life
The Blood of, the Holy Son
And the pure Blood, is given
To conquer, the evil one
The endless mercy, of God
In this holy sacrament is shown
And our soul, is united
With our loving, Savior alone
What a great, mystery
Such glory and, splendor given
It surpasses all, understanding
Of all on earth, and in heaven
Every living creature
And the angelic hosts
Worship Him, bowing their heads
Adoring Him, with great reverence
Our God is, of great glory
Many gifts to us, He imparts
He always stands, by my side
And He lives, inside my heart
My soul rejoices, in Him
In perfect, harmony
The closer I, get to Him
The closer I, want Him with me
It is most healthful, the partaking
From this holy, blessed cup
Mending my soul, making my pain
In an instant, it will stop
It gives courage, to our weak heart
And makes hope, high and strong
In it my faith, and my love
Are growing, all day long
The evil thoughts run aways
When I approach Him
And all sorrow and sufferings
Disappears away from me
We do not fear, tribulations
Wars troubles, or afflictions
Evil fears Him, and in Him forgiven
All our sins, and convictions
He is our, treasured peace
He redeemed us from slavery
He is our safety, our purity
And our final victory
