This Body Will Be Given for You GA 387

This is another one of the selections in Gather Australia for the Body and Blood of Christ.

Christopher Willcock wrote the tune and used 1 Cor 11:24-25 for the refrain and 1 Tim 3:16 for the verses. The tune drifts from one time signature to another and the third verse has a different tune. This is for a choir.

The text of the refrain is actually the ICEL text based on 1 Cor 11:24-25:

… the proper Communion Antiphon for Holy Thursday (Evening Mass) is “This body will be given for you. This is the cup of the new covenant in my blood; whenever you receive them, do so in remembrance of me” (1 Cor. 11: 24-25).
