At the supper's ending
1 At the supper's ending
faith seems firm and strong;
twelve the voices blending
in their Hebrew song.
2 Lord, whose love has freed them,
can they as they sing
guess where night will lead them,
or what day may bring?
3 Now, as then, together
by one bread, one cup,
we are pledged for ever
to one kingdom's hope.
4 Lord, you need no grieving;
you have borne our sins:
teach us at our leaving,
worship now begins.
