Ideas for use
With verse 2 ommitted ("Lord Jesus Christ, / now and every day..."), this hymn can be used on occasions other than the celebration of Holy Communion. Verses 1 and 3, in particular, make this popular ballad suitable for use during Holy Week and the Easter period.
See also the Revd Andrew Murphy's eucharistic prayer that interweaves the verses of this hymn.
