| 1 | On the table of Thy love, |
| | | With the bread, the cup is spread. |
| | By partaking of these signs, |
| | | We with Thee are richly fed. |
| | How we thank Thee for this cup, |
| | | For the cup of blessing, Lord, |
| | Cup of Thy Salvation full, |
| | | Cup of all Thou dost afford. |
| 2 | ’Tis the blood Thou shedd’st for us, |
| | | That our sins may be forgiv’n; |
| | ’Tis the cov’nant made for us, |
| | | That Thy blessings may be giv’n. |
| | Thou didst drink the cup of wrath, |
| | | Thou hast tasted death for us, |
| | Thus the cup of blessing bought, |
| | | As the portion gained for us. |
| 3 | In this portion we have God, |
| | | Whom we lost thru Adam’s fall; |
| | By the shedding of Thy blood, |
| | | God becomes our all in all. |
| | In this portion all we have- |
| | | Life and peace, redemption sure; |
| | All that God has planned and willed, |
| | | In this portion we secure. |
| 4 | An eternal portion, ‘tis, |
| | | Overflowing cup divine; |
| | Heav’nly taste do we enjoy |
| | | In this cup of God’s design. |
| | Here in love we drink this cup |
| | | In remembrance, Lord, of Thee; |
| | Thus in spirit we partake |
| | | All Thy work on Calvary. |
