In bread we bring you, Lord, our bodies' labour.
Bb F
In wine we offer you our spirits' grief.
C F
We do not ask you, Lord, who is my neighbour,
Bb F
but stand united now, one in belief.
Bb C F Dm
O we have gladly heard your Word, your holy Word,
G C F
and now in answer, Lord, our gifts we bring.
Bb C F Dm
Our selfish hearts make true, our failing faith renew,
G C F
our lives belong to you, our Lord and King

F C7 F
The bread we offer you is blessed and broken,
Bb F
and it becomes for us our spirits' food.
C F
Over the cup we bring your Word is spoken;
Bb F
make it your gift to us, your healing blood.
Bb C F Dm
Take all that daily toil plants in our hearts' poor soil,
G C F
take all we start and spoil, each hopeful dream,
Bb C F Dm
the chances we have missed, the graces we resist,
G C F
Lord, in thy Eucharist, take and redeem.
