"Our Lord Jesus Christ tliD same night in which he was
hetiaj'ed took bread, and when he had given fhaiiVs he brake
it, and gave it to liis disciples and said: 'Take, eat; this is

of me.' ■'
The consecrated bread is then distributed by
the minister and his assistants, among the com-
municants, during the singing of hymns, treat-
ing principally of the sufferings and death of

"After the name manner also our Lord Jesus Christ took the
eup, when he had supped, gave thanks, and gave it to them,
saj'ing: 'Drink ye all of it; this is my blood, the blood of the
new testament, which is shed for you and for many, for the
remission of sins. This do yo, as oft as ye drink it, in remem-
brance of me.'"'
The minister then partaking of the con-
secrated cup, delivers it to his assistants, by
whom it is administered to the congregation ;
during which hymns are sung, treating of the
remission of sins in the blood of Jesus, and its
healing and sanctifying power. The service is

Great tlie feast to wliich thou, Lord, hast bidden
Sucli a worthless guest as me ;
'Tis an awful mystery, deep and hidden,
^Tis a heavenly legacy :
Contrite souls, howe'er by sin infected,
Are made welcome, not one is rejected ;
Else this grace to sinful me
Never could extended be.
Thou thy table spreadest for the needy,
Who may feast and take their fill ;
Thou to grant thy heavenly gifts art ready,
And thy goodness to reveal :
Soul and body in this ricli fruition
Gain from thee, the Bread of life, nutrition
And we, as thy flesh and bono,
Lord, with thee are render'd one.

T. 166.
In that most dark and doleful night,
In which our Savior was betray'd,
Before his &uff'rings he took bread,
Blessed, and brake it, and then said,
" Take, eat ; this is my body giv'n
For you, and offer'd on the tree :
Perform this ord'n^^nce as I do,
And doing it remember me."
Then after supper, took the cup,
And having given thanks, he said :
" 'Tis the Xew Testament in my blood.
The blood for you and marty shed,
Take this, and drink ye all of it.
Your sins' remission here you see ;
Oft as this ordinance ye perform.
It in remembrance do of me/'
PRAYER.
The members give the right hand of fellowship.
Say, my peace I leave with you,
Amen, Amen, be it so !

HYMNS ARRANGED FOR
At his cross in laitli we wish to. tarry,
There shall be our hiding place.
May his dying look remain engraven
On our hearts ; for pardon, life, and heaven.
Our Redeemer then procured.
When he death for us endured.
Therefore all his agoaiy and passion,
And his sin-atoning death,
Shall remain, thro' grace, our faith's foundation.
While we draw our vital breath.
Thus shall neither honor, wealth, nor pleasures,
Rob our souls of everlasting treasures :
Jesus, both by day and night.
Shall remain our sole delight.
T. 166.
U Thou, the Church's Head and Lord,
Who as a shepherd leadest
Thy flock, and richly with thy word
And sacrament us feedest :
What shall we say ? Lost in amaze,
Our hearts bow down before thee :
For none sufficiently can praise.
Love, honor, or adore thee.
T. 581.
Should my tears forever flow,
Should my zeal no languor know,
This for sin would not atone :
THE COMMIMON SEUVICE.
Thou must save, and thou alone ;
In my hand no price I bring.
Simply to thy Cross I cling.
T. 168.
Meanwhile God, the Holy i^pirit.
Is our pledge of joys to come.
Of the bliss we shall inherit
When above with Christ at home ;
0 this blessed meditation
Yields us solid consolation,
That we shall, when time is o'er,
With the Lord be evermore.
T. 96.

And drank the blood he shed for me,
O may I never him forget !
I know he will remember me ;
And I shall, when this life is o'er,
Live in his presence evermore.
T. 22.
Happy, thrice happy hour of grace !
I've seen, by faith, my Savior's face ;
He did himself to me impart,
And made a cov'nant with my lieait.
To Jesus, our exalted Head,
Immortal honors now be paid ;
The glory of his saving name
Our tongues shall evermore proclaim.
