475 ~ By Christ Redeemed
1
By Christ redeemed, in Christ restored, We keep the memory adored, And show the death of our dear Lord, Until He come.
2
His body broken in our stead Is here, in this memorial bread; And so our feeble love is fed, Until He come.
3
His fearful drops of agony, His life-blood shed for us we see; The wine shall tell the mystery, Until He come.
4
And thus that dark betrayal night, With the last advent we unite — The shame, the glory, by this rite, Until He come.
5
Until the trump of God be heard, Until the ancient graves be stirred, And with the great commanding word The Lord shall come.
6
O blessed hope! with this elate; Let not our heart be desolate, But, strong in faith, in patience wait Until He come!
