I’ve heard it said
That You are far away
Up in Heaven
Sitting on a chair
And I’ve heard it said
That getting near to You
Means lifting my thoughts
Way up there

But You say
Take and eat
This is my body
This is Me
And you say
This cup is the very blood I shed
To set you free

Always my heart leads me to reach up to You
And always the mark is too high
So in this simple meal You make a rendezvous
And our lowly flesh dignify

You come down
You come down
You come down
And our lowly flesh dignify

I’ve heard it said
That we can please Your Father
By giving You up
Again
And I’ve heard it said
Presenting Him Your body
Will earn us His
Amen

But You say
Enough is Enough
The offering was finished
Long before
And You say
This gift is for me
A pardon from death
Evermore

Always my heart leads me to reach up to You
And always the mark is too high
So in this simple meal You make a rendezvous
And our lowly flesh dignify

You come down
You come down
You come down
And our lowly flesh dignify

Empty-handed
I come to Your table
Foolishly considering
There might be some other way
But this place was set
For those who are not able
Who don’t have it coming
Who cannot pay

(Interlude)

You come down
You come down
You come down
And our lowly flesh dignify

Always my heart leads me to reach up to You
And always the mark is too high
So in this simple meal You make a rendezvous
And our lowly flesh dignify
And our lowly flesh dignify
