Verse 1
By Christ redeemed, in Christ restored,
We keep the memory adored,
And show the death of our dear Lord
Until He come.
Verse 2
His body, broken in our stead,
Is seen in this memorial bread,
And so our feeble love is fed
Until He come.
Verse 3
The drops of His dread agony,
His life-blood shed for us, we see;
The wine shall tell the mystery
Until He come.
Verse 4
Until the trump of God be heard,
Until the ancient graves be stirred,
And with the great commanding word
The Lord shall come.
Verse 5
O blessed hope! With this elate,
Let not our hearts be desolate,
But, strong in faith, in patience wait
Until He come.
