Lyrics
Come to me, Jesus, and fill this life of mine
To live in unity with You in a love that is divine
I take Your body and bring Your cup
Into this life so bare
To walk in Christian charity with my brothers I will share
Body of Christ, strengthen my life
Blood of Christ, enlighten my soul
Come to me, Jesus; teach me how to live
Show me the way to live in You and how my love to give
Let me witness to your life, to my brothers and sisters in You
Let me be a Christ with You, and your people will share it, too
Body of Christ, strengthen my life
Blood of Christ, enlighten my soul
