The bread dipped
into the cup
like clay given life
eating to remember
the grace of His life
Our eyes opened suddenly
like scales dropping away
amazed to see Jesus
right before our face
His life, His sacrifice
remembered to the day
Intoned in the words
we share as we pray
Remembering his life
His unconditional love
giving us life
when we deserve the cross
