A Short New Communion Hymn:

My latest scrivenings - -


Dear Redeemer Our Paschal Feast


Words: Jay W. Watson 2013
Music: Nikolaus Herman, 1560,
O Heilige Dreifaltigkeit
Meter: LM [TLH # 564]

 
Dear Redeemer our Paschal feast
Our atoning most Holy Priest
With bread Thy Body most divine
Serve us Thy Blood under the wine

 
On Calvary the purchase paid
The sacrifice for sinners made
This gift most sacred doth succor
All of Thy lambs unclean and poor

 
Sweet forgiveness this meal brings
With Sabaoth this parish sings
Filled with Thy Supper we depart
By Grace through Faith strengthen our heart

 
In Eucharist we recess now
To Trinity our bodies bow
Signed by the Spirit and Father
And with the Son Savior most pure
