The Sacrament
by Dane Allred
We renew our covenants of baptism,
Please add to our sacrifice thy leaven.
Help remove that ever deepening schism
That keeps us separate from Thee and heaven.
This bread, the staff of life, today we break,
And promise to remember Jesus Christ.
We covenant our lives like his to make,
We know for our sins He has paid the price.
This water, pure and clean, as Christ’s blood spilt,
For all of us he freely gave his life.
Upon Christ’s love our salvation is built,
Upon his promise we can end our strife.
Help us remember now Christ’s sacrifice,
To follow him, obey all God’s commands.
Show love to all and become like the Christ
To satisfy all that justice demands.
