The Lord's Last Supper

Traditional Gospel Song
Performed by Don Reno & Bill Harrell

Verse 1
The Lord’s last supper served in honor of our King
He knew His time was drawing nigh
He knew that He would make the greatest sacrifice
He knew His time had come to die

Chorus
        The time had come when He would die to free the world
        A world He loved so lost in sin
        The blessed promise that He left for you and me
        “I’ll go, but soon I’ll come again”

Verse 2
The twelve disciples were all gathered by His side
The blessed Christ of Calvary
He told them how to carry on His work for God
He blessed them with His Spirit free

Chorus

Verse 3
He knew that night someone would sell His precious soul
One of the twelve He loved so dear
He then told Judas quickly to go on his way
He knew His time of death was near

Chorus
