Most Holy Communion

Communion Chant

He has given them a heavenly bread
and man has eaten the bread of angels.
He has given them a heavenly bread
we have received a bread of blessing:
the Body of Christ and his precious Blood.
The Lord. . . then took the bread,
and a saving drink, the chalice of life.
We have received the holy bread.
Let us bless the Lord who has done great things on all the earth. All the people, praise the Lord,
exult with joy in the Lord, 0 you just:
you have received the Body and Blood of Christ.
We give you thanks, 0 Christ, our God,
because you have deigned to share with us
your Body and your Blood, 0 Saviour;
you have drawn to yourself our hearts. . .
