Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!
Sweetest Name on earth,
How can I, a sinner,
Come to know its worth?

Oh! the sinful sorrow,
Oh! the strangest shame,
That I saw no beauty
In that sacred Name.

Never felt the sweetness!
Never knew the grace,
Never saw the love-pain
In that wounded face!

Never found the mystery
In that simple word—
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
Savior, Lover, Lord.

Now ’tis past and over.
Gone my guilt and shame;
Jesus, Jesus did it,
Glory to His Name!

Wonderful compassion,
Reaching even me;
Bows my humbled spirit
In captivity.

Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!
Loved me in my shame.
Oh! the joy and rapture
Of that sacred Name.

Let Us Break Bread Together

Let Us Break Bread Together

Let us break bread together on our knees, (on our knees)
Let us break bread together on our knees. (on our knees)
When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord, have mercy on me.

Let us drink wine together on our knees, (on our knees)
Let us drink wine together on our knees. (on our knees)
When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord, have mercy on me.

Let us praise God together on our knees, (on our knees)
Let us praise God together on our knees. (on our knees)
When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord, have mercy on me.
