I'll never really fully understand the sacrament
Though I try to wholly understand the breadth and depth of it
How once a week i can just show up and take some water and some bread and cause what Christ has done for us it just erases sin.
I can say it seems to not be really fair
Not for us but for the One who chose to hang and suffer there for us
How come the guy who lived his life in perfect harmony and service was the one who had to suffer the pain of each of us.
And though I do not understand I do thank God
I already know im gonna fail cause I am gonna do some wrong
I am reminded as we sing the sacred sacramental song
And the prayer where I commit to not forget what He has done
And that I will do the same for others in His name since He is gone
I gotta think now “am I worthy of forgiveness by this God?”
Aint it crazy that He picked this teenage boy
To be the one who would present us with these great emblems of joy
To take His body and His blood to every sinner in that room
To be the courier of hope to us who might be feeling doom
But i am humbled when that young man comes to me
This kid who lives his life in such a way that God would call him worthy
To present us with His Son, the body and the blood, to all the people of the world, he's offering everything.
And this kids doing this service just for me?
Kinda helps to open up my eyes to see
We are all being perfected by others who aren't perfected but perfected is what we're all trying to be.
And hes helping me be all that I can be.
He condescended everything, just for you
Then rose over death and sin and you can too…So youll
Rise from your challenges and sin
Rise from the depths you find you're in
Rise from depressing thought and anger and begin
Because the victory is His and you can win
If youll just come today and take the sacrament
