122.  Christ, Our Passover

1
In mem’ry of the Saviour’s love
We keep this simple feast,
Where ev’ry consecrated heart
Is made a welcome guest.

2
By faith we take the bread of life
Which this doth symbolize;
This cup in token of his blood,
Our costly sacrifice.

3
This cup shall e’er recall the hour
When thou didst set us free;
Soon with new joy in Kingdom pow’r
We’ll drink it, Lord, with thee.

4
What rapturous joy shall then be ours,
Forever Lord, with thee!
Clothed with our resurrection pow’rs,
Thine endless praise shall be.
