Oh on this eve, must I
Trace the bumps of my tongue,
Like harsh concrete,
Across thy Eucharist.
Upon mine knees I pray to thee,
Thine Crucifix tight around my neck
In worship,
In Holy Communion,
Let us feel each other-
Thine eyes sparkling with God's
Godly grace.
The Father the Son the Spirit,
I become them all,
Entwined with thee,
I devote myself to the colours of thy flesh,
Bestowed by Heaven.
Oh within this
Blessed Holy bed,
Thou reach into my soul,
Blend my blood with rich red wine,
The crumbling wafer strewn
Across my breast,
My heart and palms outstretched to thee.
In this moment,
So close to God I feel
So close to God thou bring me,
Outstretch mine arms
To each length of thy cross,
Blow out thy candle and leave us both in
God's Grace,
In darkness,
Good Gabriel and his stars
Shut their eyes to us,
And Oh,
I feel myself Coming
Coming,
I become one with God.
Oh He is here,
I feel Him,
I am complete.
