The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life.
From it flows the unity which heals us of all strife.
Through the Holy Eucharist, which means in truth Thanksgiving,
God unites us on a holy path to pure and holy living.

Let us receive Him worthily.  Through confession, He forgives.
Let us be not defiled or commit a sacrilege.
One dresses in clean garments when one is at a wedding feast.
Our Lord deserves the best from us and not our very least.

In Most Holy Communion, we receive You loving Lord.
You give to us Your very self, dear God Who we adore.
And through this precious bit of bread that has been consecrated,
We become more like You in Whose image we are created.

Bring us to the Holy Eucharist, that with You we may have union.
Bring forth the repentance which leads to true Communion.
Let us examine consciences, know when You are offended.
Then wounded hearts will heal; by Your Sacred Host be mended.

May confession wash from our souls all grime and dirt and mud.
May peace be found with one another through Your Body, Soul and Blood.
Lord Jesus, we have loved ones who do not believe that You are there.
Find a way to show them, Lord, just how much You care.

Help them along the path of truth to find the way to You.
Bring them to confession and to pure living too.
We are made to unite, with You as our first common bond.
You call each loved one to Communion   Help each loved one to respond.

Send Your Holy Spirit Father to rest on all our souls.
May receiving Jesus worthily be the first of all our goals.
Give to us the wisdom to see the cause of our disunion:
Your body is badly bloodied by sacrilegious Communions.

There is no rest outside You Lord.  In You alone is peace.
Only through the Eucharist will our divisions cease.
Be our teacher, Jesus; instruct us on our way.
Through the Holy Eucharist, unite us in truth today.
