HOLY COMMUNION ~ By Johann Franck, 1649 HYMN
Deck thyself, my soul, with gladness
Leave the gloomy haunts of sadness,
Come into the daylight’s splendor,
There with joy they praises render
Unto him whose grace unbounded
Hath this wondrous banquet founded;
High o’er all the heavens he reigneth,
Yet to dwell with thee he deigneth.
Sun, who all my life dost brighten;
Light, who dost my soul enlighten;
Joy, the sweetest man e’er knoweth;
Fount, whence all my being floweth:
At they feet I cry, my Maker,
Let me be a fit partaker
Of this blessed food from heaven,
For our good, thy glory, given.
Jesus, Bread of Life, I pray thee,
Let me gladly here obey thee;
Never to my hurt invited,
Be thy love with love requited;
From this banquet let me measure;
Through the gifts thou here doest give me,
As they guest in heaven receive me. Amen.
