Jesus Christ, Our Blessed Savior

1 Jesus Christ, our Blessed Savior, Turned away God's wrath forever; Suff'ring pains no tongue can tell, He saved us from the pains of hell.

2 To remind us that, to save us He hath died, His flesh He gave us With this bread, a quick'ning food, And with this wine, His precious blood.

3 Whoso to this board repaireth, Take good heed how He prepareth; Death instead of life shall He Receive who comes unworthily.

4 Praise the Father, God in heaven, Who such dainty food hath given, And for misdeeds thou hast done Gave to die His beloved Son.

5 Thou shalt hold with faith unshaken, That this food is to be taken By the sick who are distressed, By those whose heart is sin- oppressed.
