Take Lord receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my entire will; all that I have and possess. You have given all to me. To you, O Lord, I return it. All is yours, dispose of it according to your will. Give me only your love and your grace. That is enough for me.

[T]his food is called among us Εὐχαριστία [the Eucharist]... For not as common bread and common drink do we receive these; but in like manner as Jesus Christ our Savior, having been made flesh by the Word of God, had both flesh and blood for our salvation...
