7s & 6s.

Draw near to Jesus' table,
Ye contrite souls, draw near;
The hungry, sick, and feeble

Are made most welcome here:
Let Jesus' death engraven
Upon your hearts remain;
Thus here, and there in heaven,
Eternal life you gain.

Tune 151.

All standing, the Minister shall consecrate the bread, saying:

Our Lord Jesus Christ, the same night in which he was betrayed, took bread, and, when he had given thanks, he brake it, and gave it to his disciples and said: Take, eat; this is my body which is given for you. This do in remembrance of me.

C. M.

P. M.

Together with these symbols, Lord,
Thy blessed self impart:

And let thy holy flesh and blood
Feed the believing heart.

Let us from all our sins be washed
In thy atoning blood;

And let thy Spirit be the seal

That we are born of God.

Come, Holy Ghost, with Jesus' love
Prepare us for this feast;

Oh let us banquet with our Lord,
And lean upon his breast.

Bread of life,

Christ, by whom alone we live;
Bread that came to us from heaven,
My poor soul can never thrive
Unless thou appease its craving:
Lord, I hunger only after thee,
Feed thou me.

Holy Lord,

By thy body given to death,
Mortify my sinful nature,

Till I yield my dying breath;

Tune 14.

Tune 119.

7s.

Ah, protect thy feeble creature:
Grant that I, by nothing drawn aside,
Thine abide.

Tune 205.

Ye who Jesus' death proclaim,
Service yield to him with joy;
Praise with every breath his name,
Grace to extol be your employ:
Grace supports us every day,
Leads us in the narrow way;
'T is through grace alone that we
Can obtain the victory.

Christ, thy all-atoning death
Is our life while here below;
Strengthen thou our feeble faith,
Constantly thy aid bestow:

In thy mercy we confide,
Safely to the end us guide;
Zion, if thy head depart,

Void of life and strength thou art.

When the bread has been distributed, the communicants shall rise and the Minister shall say:

Our Lord Jesus Christ said, Take, eat; this is my body which is given for you.

8s & 7s.

SILENT PRAYER.

Sweet the moments, rich in blessing,
Which before the cross I spend;
Life, and health, and peace possessing
From the sinner's dying friend.

Here I'll sit, for ever viewing

Tune 16.

Mercy's streams, in streams of blood;
Precious drops my soul bedewing,

Plead and claim my peace with God.

¶ All standing, the Minister shall consecrate the wine, saying:

After the same manner also our Lord Jesus Christ took the cup, when he had supped, gave thanks, and gave it to his disciples, saying: Drink ye all of it; this is my blood, the blood of the New Testament, which is shed for you and for many, for the remission of sins. This do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

7s & 6s.

C. M.

P.M.

8s & 78.

Thy blood, so dear and precious,
Love made thee shed for me;
Oh, may I now, dear Jesus,
Love thee most fervently;
May the divine impression
Of thy atoning death,
And all thy bitter passion,

Tune 151.

Ne'er leave me while I've breath.

For ever here my rest shall be,
Close to thy piercéd side;
This all my hope and all my plea,
For me the Saviour died.

My dying Saviour and my God,
Fountain for guilt and sin,
Sprinkle me ever with thy blood,
And cleanse, and keep me clean.

The atonement of thy blood apply,
Till faith to sight improve;

Till hope in full fruition die,
And all my soul be love.

Tune 14.

Tune 159.

Naught in this world affords true rest
But Christ's atoning blood;

This purifies the guilty breast.
And reconciles to God:

Hence flows unfeignéd love to him

Who came lost sinners to redeem,
And Christ our Saviour doth appear
Daily to us more dear.

Oh, could we but love that Saviour,
Who loves us so ardently,

As we ought, our souls would ever
Full of joy and comfort be:
If we, by his love excited,

Could ourselves and all forget,
Then with Jesus Christ united,
We should heaven anticipate.

Tune 167.

Did but Jesus' love and merit
Fill our hearts both night and day,
And the unction of his Spirit

All our thoughts and actions sway:
Might we all be ever ready
Cheerfully to testify,

How our spirit, soul and body
Do in God our Saviour joy.

7s, 8s & 7s.

P. M.

L. M.

Jesus will I never leave,

He's the God of my salvation;
Through his merits I receive
Pardon, life, and consolation:
All the powers of my mind
To my Saviour be resigned.

He is mine, and I am his,

Tune 83.

Joined with him in close communion;
And his bitter passion is

The foundation of this union:
Full of hopes which never yield,
Firm on him, my rock, I build.

Meanwhile God the Holy Spirit
Is our pledge of joys to come,
Of the bliss we shall inherit

When above with Christ at home:
Oh, this blessed meditation

Yields us solid consolation,

That we shall, when time is o'er,
With the Lord be evermore.

Tune 168.

Spirit of mercy, truth and love,
Oh, shed thine influence from above;
And still, from age to age, convey
The wonders of this sacred day.

Tune 22,

In every clime, by every tongue,
Be God's surpassing glory sung;
Let all the listening earth be taught
The wonders by our Saviour wrought.

Unfailing comfort, heavenly guide,
Still o'er thy holy church preside;
Still let mankind thy blessings prove,
Spirit of mercy, truth, and love.

The communicants shall give the right hand of fellowship while the following lines are sung:

L. M.

O Holy Father, Holy Son,

And Holy Spirit, three in one;
Thy grace devoutly we implore,
Thy name be praised for evermore.

VI.

Tune 230.

L. M.

Jesus, Lord most great and glorious,
Reward and crown of the victorious.
Restorer of lost paradise;
We appear with supplication,
Before thee, God of our salvation,
And send to thee our fervent cries:
O Lord our righteousness,
"T is thy delight to bless;
We desire it,

Come then, for we

Belong to thee,

And bless us inexpressibly.

O Church of Jesus, now draw near,
With humble joy and filial fear;
According to his testament

Enjoy the holy sacrament.

Tune 22,

Here all our wants are well supplied,
And we show forth that Jesus died:

May we abide in him by faith,

And cleave to him in life and death.

PRAYER.

The communicants shall give the right hand of fellowship while the following lines are sung:

Say,

Tune 185, last part.

"My peace I leave with you:" Amen, Amen, be it so.
