Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. O Lord of Hosts, we now invoke Thy Spirit most divine To cleanse our hearts while we partake The broken bread and wine.
2. May we forever think of thee And of thy suff’rings sore, Endured for us on Calvary, And praise thee evermore.
3. Prepare our minds that we may see The beauties of thy grace, Salvation purchased on that tree For all who seek thy face.
4. As brethren, let us ever live In fellowship and peace! Forgive, that God may us forgive, That love may still increase.
5. May union, peace, and love abound, And perfect harmony, And joy in one continual round Through all eternity.
