Ang Katawan Ni Kristo (Behold, the Body of Christ)







In the presence of our God,
as we gather here in Christ,
feel the Spirit breathe upon us,
the breath of life, graced and divine.
We have come to break the bread;
we have come to share our lives.
Let us bring these fruits to the table,
the love of God, yours and mine!

Refrain
Ang Katawan Ni Kristo (2x)
Behold the Body of Christ, Jesus our Saviour and Life!
Rejoice O people of God! We are the Body of Christ!
When we gather in our homes,
through our prayers and our meals,
we are fed and nourished together,
our families, broken and blessed.
In the household of the Lord,
where we come to share the meal,
we are fed the words of our Saviour,
one family, strengthened and healed. (Refrain)

Bridge:
Is not the meal that we bless and share a communion in the life of Christ?
One bread, one blessing, one cup make us one body in our Lord.

In the presence of our God,
by the justice that is shown,
We will build a kingdom together;
The love of Christ given to all (Refrain)
