OFFERTORY MUSIC
‘Take This Bread’
Refrain:
Take our bread, we ask you;
Take our hearts, we love you,
Take our lives, oh Father;
We are yours, we are yours.
Yours as we stand at the table you set,
Yours as we eat the bread our hearts can’t forget.
We are the sign of your life with us yet,
We are yours, we are yours.
Refrain
Your holy people standing washed in your blood.
Spirit filled, yet hungry, we await your food.
We are poor, but we’ve brought ourselves the best we could,
We are yours, we are yours.
