Eucharistic Hymn

by i.burgess on December 11, 2010

This day receive me
Son of God
Communing at your mystic feast,
For I will not betray
You Mystery to your foes;
Will never give a kiss
Like that which Judas gave,
But like the thief
I shall confess to you:
In your royal kingdom, Lord,
Be mindful then of me.

Liturgy of St John Chrysostom
5th Century
