The Body and The Blood Songtext
von Janet Paschal

Fifty years ago today
She gave her only child away
To live a life easy to regret
Years went by
How time has flown
Her days are mostly spent alone
Daring to remember
Hoping to forget


This is My body broken just for you
For all you′ve been
And all you've been through
This is My blood
And when you′ve reached the end
I offer you again the body and blood

He fought a war against his will
Truth be known he's fighting still
He looks for hope
Through narrow blood-shot eyes
He slips into a polished pew
Lingers for an hour or two
Sometimes it feels better
To sit and cry awhile

()

One by one we take the common cup
We remember and we lift it up
