One Saturday morning I went to a men's meeting at a church and the old guy there talked about communion. I was moved by what he had to say and went home and wrote this song.
Lyrics
Coming humbly to your table
Asking you to cleanse my sin
Nothing held against my brother
Show me, make me pure within
Remembering your agony upon the cross
My spirit breaks considering the cost
of all that is provided for me by your pain
Your bitter loss was given for my gain
“This do in remembrance” you told us
Help us never to forget
The death you died so you could always hold us
We’re yours for you have paid our debt
Remembering your agony upon the cross
My spirit breaks considering the cost
of all that is provided for me by your pain
Your bitter loss was given for my gain
As I come, Oh Lord, make my heart worthy
To take your precious bread and wine
The taste of bittersweet reminds me
Of how you gave your life for mine
Remembering your agony upon the cross
My spirit breaks considering the cost
of all that is provided for me by your pain
Your bitter loss was given for my gain
