Take and Eat
She saw it hang upon the tree
She took and ate, we bore the curse
But see Him hang upon a tree
Now take and eat, He bore the curse, for us.
The cup He drank was full of wrath
He drained its dregs, on our behalf
This cup we drink is full of life
It satisfies, the payment price, for us.
So, take this bread, and drink this cup
Remember Him, and His great love
Take this bread, and drink this cup
Remember Him, until He comes
Take this bread, and drink this cup
Remember Him, and His great love
Take this bread, and drink this cup
Remember Him, until He comes again
_“So simple the act, so hard its undoing. God will taste poverty and death before “Take and eat” become verbs of salvation.”
