HOLY, HOLY, HOLY LORD ?© 1996 Robert Cullinan. The copyright holder grants permission to reproduce these lyrics, as long as this notice remains with each copy. Holy, holy, holy Lord God in Heav???n???on earth adored; Holy Father, Holy Son, Holy Spirit, with Them One. Lord, Creator of all things, God of prophets, priests and kings: When th???appointed time had come, You sent us Your only Son. Send upon our gifts this day Blessings from Your throne, we pray. May Your Spirit be outpoured At this entrance of the Lord. Let this bread and wine become Flesh and Blood of Your dear Son, That we may united be With our Lord eternally. On the night He was betrayed, As the evening sun did fade, Our Lord Jesus Christ took bread, Giving thanks, blessed it and said: ???This, My Body, is for you, And My Blood???the Cov???nant New. Eat and drink this sacrament; My gift is your nourishment.??? Jesus Christ, incarnate One, Son of God and Mary???s son, We recall Your humble birth: King of Heav???n and Lord of earth! We recall Your pain and grief, Endless anguish, no relief, When upon that tree You died For the Church, Your chosen Bride. But no grave, the Lord, could hold; Hence the stone away was rolled, When the resurrected Lord Rose so that He might award Victory over death and grave To those whom He came to save. Now in heaven He shall reign ???Til we see Him come again. Send to us Your Spirit, Lord; By His presence be outpoured Grace on grace and love on love??? Every blessing from above. Bless Your Church on earth; preserve All her leaders as they serve. Be with all for whom we pray As we intercede this day. Our hearts, longing from within, Ache for freedom from our sin. In Your mercy, hear our cry To be with Your saints on high. God our Father and the Son And the Spirit, with Them One: You we honor and adore With our praises evermore.
