Eucharistic Meditations
Eight
- In jubilant oration we gather for the feast
In love and adoration of our defining priest
Who, as the Lamb unblemished, was victim, Saviour, King,
Triumphant as He yielded to earthly posturing. - His glorious Resurrection fulfilled His offering
At table, then at Calvary with dreadful suffering,
And that first Easter evening at Emmaus he broke bread,
Confirming that the world would share His body in His stead. - And so, in seeking pardon for all our sinful deeds
We gather in the Spirit, intent on heavenly needs;
We recognise our weakness but feel our strength restored
In the Most Blessed Sacrament of Jesus Christ Our Lord.
