Today’s hymn comes from Thomas Cotterill (1779-1823) an Anglican clergyman who became a central figure in the dispute about the propriety of singing hymns in his time. A good hymn to mediate before coming to the Lord’s Table; enjoy!
In memory of the Saviour’s love,
We keep the sacred feast.
Where every humble, contrite heart
Is made a welcome guest.
By faith we take the bread of life
Withy which our souls are fed,
The cup in token of His blood
That was for sinners shed.
In faith and memory thus we sing
The wonders of His love,
And thus anticipate by faith
The heavenly feast above.
