Take, Eat; This is My Body

Take, eat; this is My body.
Which is given for you;
Do this in remembrance of Me
Take, drink from it all of you
This is the cup of a covenant new
My shed blood, which for you I do
The hand of the betrayer is here
And the hour it draws near
The Son of Man must go
So the comfort of God will come
Love and mercy has always been
But now it is coming to understanding
By the life, the death, and the life of a King

Take, eat; this is My body.
Which is given for you;
Do this in remembrance of Me
Take, drink from it all of you
For I will not drink of the vine
From this day until it is done
Peter the cock is prepared to crow
You are forgiven, this you must know
The Son of Man goes to the father
So the spirit may flow like the waters
Sent from God to His sons and daughters
Go now and be as one who is the least
And be as a servant and serve in the Christ

Take, eat; this is My body.
Which is given for you;
Do this in remembrance of Me
Take, drink from it all of you
To some will be given wisdom
And to others understanding
And still to another prophecy
Miracles, discernment and healing
Knowledge, tongues and faith
All from the one spirit, many different gifts
Not so you can be lords over one another
But so the body of Christ may be complete
Diverse ministries but all the same Christ
