The Lord's Supper



The time is near says my Lord
To all sitting around the table
You can hear one crying in the wilderness
Waiting for the Savior to come.
The meal was just the body of our Lord as he
Broke the bread and gave the cup of wine
The night drawn down at the table each one
Looking for he's place of time.
