Accept These Gifts
Sacred Offerings: A Hymn of Redemption and Renewal
Lyrics
Accept our gifts we bring to you, Lord
Expressing a desire for the divine to accept the offerings being presented.
Accept our gifts of bread and wine
Presenting gifts symbolized by bread and wine as an act of devotion.
For it is you, O Lord, who became the bread of life for our salvation
Acknowledging the divine as the source of spiritual sustenance and salvation.
It is You, O Lord, who takes away the sins of the world
Recognizing the divine role in forgiveness and redemption for humanity.
We come, O Lord, hurting and broken within
Approaching the divine in a state of emotional and spiritual pain.
Overwhelmed by our sins
Feeling overwhelmed by the weight of sins and shortcomings.
Accept O Lord, these gifts we offer to you
Offering gifts as a plea for acceptance and forgiveness.
And wash away our sins
Seeking purification and forgiveness for committed sins.
Accept our gifts we bring to you, Lord
Repeating the act of presenting gifts to the divine.
Accept our gifts of bread and wine
Reiterating the symbolic gifts of bread and wine as an offering.
For it is you, O Lord, who became the bread of life for our salvation
Emphasizing the divine role in providing spiritual sustenance and salvation.
It is You, O Lord, who takes away the sins of the world
Acknowledging the divine as the remover of worldly sins.
Leaving behind us, those mistakes that burden our hearts
Expressing a desire to leave behind past mistakes that weigh on the heart.
We have come, no more to roam
Declaring a commitment to stay on a righteous path.
We bring our sorrows, our worries and trade them for joy
Offering sorrows and worries in exchange for divine joy.
Take them, Lord, and purify
Requesting the divine to take and purify the presented burdens.
Accept our gifts we bring to you, Lord
Repeating the act of presenting gifts in a spirit of devotion.
Accept our gifts of bread and wine
Reiterating the symbolic gifts of bread and wine as an expression of devotion.
For it is you, O Lord, who became the bread of life for our salvation
Emphasizing the divine role in providing spiritual sustenance and salvation.
It is You, O Lord, who takes away the sins of the world
Acknowledging the divine as the remover of worldly sins.
Accept, O Lord, this bread we offer you
Presenting bread as a symbolic offering, seeking divine acceptance.
And bless your children, Lord
Seeking blessings for the followers of the divine.
Accept, O Lord this wine we offer You
Presenting wine as a symbolic offering, seeking divine acceptance.
And bless Your children, Lord
Seeking blessings for the followers of the divine.
