us.
As the Faithful approach for Communion, the Choirs chant (see page ____):
Of Thy Mystic Supper, O Son of God, receive me today as a communicant; for I
will not speak of Thy Mystery, nor will I give Thee a kiss as did Judas, but like
the thief do I confess Thee: Remember me, O Lord in Thy Kingdom, remember
me, O Master in Thy Kingdom, remember me, O Holy One when Thou comest in
Thy Kingdom
Behold, this hath touched thy lips and will take away thine iniquity, and shall
purge thy sin. Alleluia.
During Paschal-tide, the following may be chanted:
Partake ye of the Body of Christ; taste ye of the Immortal Source. Alleluia.
