1
In memory of the Saviour's love,
We keep the sacred feast.
Where every humble, contrite heart
Is made a welcome guest.
2
By faith we take the bread of life
With which our souls are fed,
The cup in token of His blood
That was for sinners shed.
3
In faith and memory thus we sing
The wonders of His love,
And thus anticipate by faith
The heavenly feast above.

Well, I couldn't find a video of this hymn being sung to this tune. Apparently there are a couple of other tunes that are more commonly used. So here is a video of an instrumental version of the tune known as Este's Psalter, 1592.

P.S. I did find videos of the Christmas carol "While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks By Night" with this same tune.
