Eucharist

This is the dew which falls from heaven
To bring God’s life to earth.
This is the fountainhead of the seven
Restorers of heavenly birth.

This is the vineyard and the vine,
This is the great winepress,
Crushing its grapes to make our wine
The wine of deathlessness.

This is the grain that its own life forsakes
To become your life and mine.
This is the burning oven that bakes
The Bread which makes us divine.
