O what a miracle, my Lord

O what a miracle

my Lord

That I’m in Thee and Thou in me

That Thou and I are really one;

O what a wondrous mystery!

For me Thy body Thou didst give

That I may ever share in Thee;

For me Thy precious blood was shed

That from my sins I might be free.

By resurrection Thou didst change

Thy form and as the Spirit come;

Thou wouldst that I be filled with Thee

That all Thy riches mine become.

Now as the symbols we behold

Thy loving self we see anew;

We thank Thee for Thy heart’s desire

As all Thy travail we review.

We eat the bread and drink the wine

And to Thy sweetness we are led;

In spirit each receiving Thee

Our spirits with Thyself are fed.

We long to eat and drink e’en more

To take Thyself in spirit thus

Till Thou shalt all our being fill

And true remembrance have from us.
