Bittersweet - Michael O'Brien

Ooh-ooh-ooh…

Ooh-ooh-ooh…

The chosen twelve, the upper room

The Son of Man preparing to be leaving soon

The bread of life, the wine of sacrifice

He gave His life to save us all, to save us all

And, oh, the living bread is bittersweet

That Jesus broke for me

The loving cup reminds me as I drink

I know something of His mercy now

I’ve tasted of His grace

It’s bittersweet this bread we eat

This cup is bittersweet

So this we do in memory

Of Him who died that we might live eternally, oh…

A boundless love, which cost His flesh and blood

His death gave us undying hope, undying hope

And, oh, the living bread is bittersweet

That Jesus broke for me

The loving cup reminds me as I drink

I know something of His mercy now

I’ve tasted of His grace

It’s bittersweet this bread we eat

This cup is bittersweet

If any man is hungry

Come and eat this bread of life

And for those who thirst

There is a cup that overflows

The price was paid in full

A sinless man chose willingly

To die for me and you

And, oh, yes, the living bread is bittersweet

That Jesus broke for me

Oh, the loving cup reminds me as I drink

I know something of His mercy now

I’ve tasted of His grace

I am myself unworthy

Of this sacrament, this sacrifice

It’s bittersweet this bread we eat

This cup is bittersweet

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh…

Ooh-ooh-ooh…
