Jesus as I eat this bread
My body is your body now
Thinking of the words you said
No price could be too high
Here you have invited me
You said you love to dine with me
You are just so kind to me
I never worked out why
This is communion
Our timeless fusion
Our sacred space .....
I crave no greater aim
Than to be where your name
Finds a resting place
But I can hear a symphony
Penetrating into me
The song your blood now sings to me
Opens my heart wide
Lifting this cup to my lips
Oh how great your mercy is
I was not prepared for this
Love that never dies
This is communion
Our timeless fusion
Our sacred space .....
I crave no greater aim
Than to be where your name
Finds a resting place
Heart to heart and face to face
This is now my happy place
Bursting with ecstatic praise
Death has been defied
Leaving my solemnity
Jesus you’re presenting me
With this new identity
Expressed in bread and wine
This is communion
Our timeless fusion
Our sacred space .....
I crave no greater aim
Than to be where your name
Finds a resting place
Jesus I will not forget
Why you suffered such a death
The day that in your faithfulness
You were crucified
Knowing that we are now the fruit
The joy that you looked forward to
Your great reward, your dream come true
Your long awaited bride
This is communion
Our timeless fusion
Our sacred space .....
I crave no greater aim
Than to be where your name
Finds a resting place
Now as endless angels strum
Hearing all creation hum
I could sing a million songs
To thank you Jesus Christ
For every war has now been won
By the wonders you have done
Brighter than the dawning sun
On us the heavens shines
This is communion
Our timeless fusion
Our sacred space .....
I crave no greater aim
Than to be where your name
Finds a resting place
I crave no greater aim
Than to be where your name
Finds a resting place
