Sacrament

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
