Shirley wanted this Fr Frank Andersen song (music available at his site) and it is one of my favourites. I like songs with lots of spaces to breath and contrast. It is based on Ps115 and 1 Cor 10:15 and has a wonderfully unresolved ending.
My backing is at 87 bpm.
Chorus
This blessing cup is our communion in the blood of Christ!
Each time you drink this cup
You proclaim his death until he comes!
Verse 1
How can I repay the Lord for His goodness to me?
The cup of salvation I will raise and call on his name!
Chorus
Verse 2
Father please hear my prayer! May this chalice pass by!
But if You want that I should drink, Your will be done.
Chorus
Verse 3
To You I give my heart! You are Father to me!
And I will live within Your house! Strong in Your love!
Chorus
