When on Thy table, Lord, we gaze (Alternate Tune)

1
When on Thy table, Lord, we gaze,
  We marvel at the signs:
A loaf of bread, a cup of wine,
  Displayed as God designs.
2
The loaf portrays the bread of life
  As heav’nly food to us,
Imparted by Thy mystic death
  That we may share Thee thus.
3
The portion is the cup divine,
  Composed of Jesus’ blood;
This cup of blessing we receive
  And gain what is of God.
4
We eat of Thee, the Bread of life,
  By sharing here this bread;
Thus we remember Thee in love
  And with Thyself are fed.
5
We all enjoy the blessings gained
  By drinking of this cup;
Thus we remember Thee with joy,
  Till we are taken up.
6
By feasting on this bread and cup
  Thy death we now declare,
And testify Thou art our life
  And all we daily share.
7
We’re waiting for that glorious hour,
  When in the fullest way
We’ll feed on Thee and feast with Thee
  And worship Thee for aye.
