Reaching out with a shout of joy:
Bread is broken, the wine is poured,
Christ is spoken and seen and heard.
Refrain:
Jesus lives again, earth can breathe again,
pass the Word around: loaves abound!
Jesus lives again, earth can breathe again,
pass the Word around: loaves abound!
2 Christ is able to make us one.
At the table he sets the tone,
Teaching people to live to bless,
Love in word and in deed express. [Refrain]
3 Jesus calls us in, sends us out
Bearing fruit in a world of doubt,
Gives us love to tell, bread to share:
God (Immanuel) ev'rywhere! [Refrain] Topics: The Sacraments Eucharist Languages: English Tune Title: LINSTEAD
