122 - Lord, Accept the Gifts
1. Lord, accept the gifts we offer
At this Eucharistic feast.
Bread and wine to be transformed now.
Through the action of Thy priest
Take us, too, O Lord, transform us;
By Thy grace in us increased.
2. Many our Souls be pure and spotless
As the Host of Wheat so fine;
May all stain of sin be crushed out,
Like the grape that forms the wine,
As we too become partakers
In this Sacrifice divine.
3. Take our gifts, Almighty Father,
Living God eternal, true
Which we give through Christ our Saviour,
Pleading here for us anew,
Grant salvation to all present
And our faith and love renew.
