An Awe-full Mystery is Here


An awe-full mystery is here
To challenge faith and waken fear:
The Savior comes as food divine,
Concealed in earthly bread and wine.

This world is loveless�but above
What wondrous boundlessness of love!
The King of Glory stoops to me
My spirit�s life and strength to be.

In consecrated wine and bread
No eye perceives the mystery dread;
But Jesus� words are strong and clear;
�My body and My blood are here.�

How dull are all the powers of sense
Employed on proofs of love immense!
The richest food remains unseen,
And highest gifts appear�how mean!

But here we have no boon on earth,
And faith alone discerns its worth.
The Word, not sense, must be our guide,
And faith assure since sight�s denied.

Lord, show us still that Thou art good
And grant us evermore this food.
Give faith to every wavering soul
And make each wounded spirit whole.
