Eucharistic Ponderings and Proclamations


Is this poor morsel,
  The Flesh of He who opened Himself
  To the suffering of the Cross?
Is this parched wheat,
  The banqueting food of the eternal festival
  Of the Resurrected Groom in His Kingdom?
Is this fermented juice,
  The life stream dripped
  Unto cruel cross and dry ground?
Is this Cup
  The time and eternity drink
  Of earth and Heaven made one?
I believe, I believe
  His Flesh is Food indeed - The Bread of Heaven
  His Cup is Drink indeed - The Blood of Christ
I believe, I believe.
  Lord, help me in my unbelief..

LORD, have mercy,   Brian+
