ZACHARY'S NOTES:
Stanza 1 // Christ’s words are sung by Christians to one another - perhaps most effectively when led by a choir, cantor, or small group of singers. Jesus gives us these words, and we come to Christ because God calls us to Himself.
Stanza 2 // The bread Jesus gives is Himself for your life, which promises us life forever in God’s promise of resurrection.
Stanza 3 // If we question the veracity of these words, Jesus points to those given truly miraculous, heavenly food as an example of those given a great gift from God - who nonetheless were left in death! When we have Christ, we have all we need for life today and life forever in God’s Son.
Stanza 4 // In contrast with those who ate manna in the wilderness and died, Christ gives us Himself that we might live forever through death. This is the promise which leads us to the repeated refrain - He who is the resurrection and life will raise us up on the last day, for we have Christ as our living bread!
Stanza 5 // If the first four stanzas of this hymn have been sung by a leader, the final stanza might be appropriately sung in response. This is both practical - the congregation will have learned how to track notes and text - and personal - as these words move from quotation to response. This leaves us not in question [as with those in the opening verses of this weekend’s Gospel reading] but in faith. Christ will raise us on the last day!
Refrain // The result of Jesus’ words is resurrection from the dead on the last day - a promise which holds us today and forever.
