Lord, Thou art our peace offering

Lord

Thou art our peace offering;

We lay our hands on Thee.

We’re one with Thee

Lord Jesus

In fact and practically.

Here in the tent of meeting

We offer Thee to God

And with the Father feasting

Enjoy Thee as our food.

Christ is our peace! Christ is our peace!

We praise Thee

blessed Lord!

Our peace with God

our peace with man

Have fully been restored.

O what a peace it gives us

To see the sprinkled blood.

The blood of our peace offering

Has brought us peace with God.

With boldness we’re proclaiming—

Now hear this

enemy—

“Peace by the blood of Jesus!”

This is our victory.

Based on the burnt oblation

And the meal offering too

We now may offer Jesus

As our peace offering true.

The more we eat and drink Him

In His humanity

The more we may enjoy Him

While feasting corporately.

What fellowship

what fellowship

With God and man we share!

O what a joy

O what a feast

With all God’s people here.

Here God enjoys His portion—

’Tis inward

hidden

sweet—

And all the priestly family

May here the wave breast eat.

The offering priest—how precious—

May of the best partake:

He gets the right heave shoulder

And one unleavened cake.

Christ is our peace! Christ is our peace!

We praise Thee

blessed Lord!

Our peace with God

our peace with man

Have fully been restored.

How sweet to eat the wave breast

The all-embracing love

Of Christ in resurrection!

It sets us all above.

What strength to eat the shoulder

Of the ascended One

And with the cake be nourished

To walk as He has done.

With all the cleansed ones feasting

How rich the Christ we eat!

Oh

this is true communion

The only way to meet.

We bring our full thanksgiving

And e’en would make a vow—

We’re for the Lord’s recovery

As He is for us now.
