Because Thou Hast Said

Because Thou hast said

Do this for My sake

The mys­tic­al bread we glad­ly par­take;

We thirst for the Spir­it that flows from above

And long to in the Spir­it Thy full­ness of love.

’Tis here we look up and grasp at Thy mind

’Tis here that we hope Thine im­age to find;

The means of be­stow­ing Thy gifts we em­brace;

But all things are ow­ing to Je­sus’ grace.
