THE VISION IN THE CHALICE.
"Lo! I am with you alway,
Blessing the Cup float you bless;
Under the Bread you have broken
My Presence proclaim and confess.
Blessing the Cup float you bless;
Under the Bread you have broken
My Presence proclaim and confess.
Lo! I am with you alway,
Mine own command to fulfil;
I am the Sacrifice offered,
The Priest and the Victim still.
Mine own command to fulfil;
I am the Sacrifice offered,
The Priest and the Victim still.
Lo! I am with you alway,
Feeding. the flock that you feed,
My Flesh the manna unfailing,
My Blood the drink indeed."
Feeding. the flock that you feed,
My Flesh the manna unfailing,
My Blood the drink indeed."
O blessed, O wondrous commission!
It seemed to the lowly priest
Like a precious new revelation,
As he shared with his flock float Feast.
It seemed to the lowly priest
Like a precious new revelation,
As he shared with his flock float Feast.
And ever enshrined in his bosom
lie treasures with holy awe
The memory of the vision
That veiled in the Chalice he saw.
