Lyrics from A Collection of Sacred Hymns for the Use of the Latter Day Saints, 1844
1. Here at thy table, Lord, we meet,
To feed on food divine;
Thy body is the bread we eat,
Thy precious blood the wine.
2. He, who prepares this rich repast,
Himself comes down and dies;
And then invites us thus to feast
Upon the sacrifice.
3. Here peace and pardon sweetly flow;
Oh what delightful food!
We eat the bread - and drink the wine -
But think on nobler good.
4. Deep was the suff'ring he endured
Upon the accursed tree -
For me - each welcome guest may say,
'Twas all endured for me.
5. Sure there was never love so free -
Dear Savior - so divine!
Well thou may'st claim that heart of me,
Which owes so much to thine.
