A minister challenged me to write a Communion song. This is probably not what he had in mind. Its got a slightly trip hop feel while still being guitar driven. The essence of Communion is remembering, something we all need to do.
In the wine and the bread
We remember the day
That Jesus died to take our sin away,
Hung up on a cross
For the world to see
But it should have been you
Should have been me
We remember
We remember
The wine is his blood
Like a river that flowed
As He died on the cross
And as He carried our load
To purchase forgiveness
Amazing but true
He did it for me
Did it for you
We remember
We remember
This bread is His body
So broken and bruised
Betrayed and rejected
Despised and abused
We eat it together
To hunger no more
For He is the bread of life
We remember
We remember
We get so busy
As we live for each day
Its so easy to work
But so hard to pray
Like Israel of old
We still need to be told
To remember
In the wine and the bread
We remember the day
That Jesus died to take our sin away,
Hung up on a cross
For the world to see
His mercy has made us free
We remember
We remember
We remember
We remember
