Priest: Blessed are you, Lord, God of all creation. Through your goodness we have this bread to offer, which earth has given and human hands have made. It will become for us the bread of life. All: Blessed be God for ever.

Priest: Blessed are you, Lord, God of all creation. Through your goodness we have this wine to offer, fruit of the vine and work of human hands. It will become our spiritual drink. All: Blessed be God for ever.

I don't remember the last time I actually heard this. YOu see it happen with background music, but rare is the occasion any more when the priest waits for the music to be over before doing this.

I like EPI because of the language. It just resonates more, IMO.
