Oh, really?
In Humility, Our Savior, no. 172
1. In humility, our Savior,
Grant thy Spirit here, we pray,
As we bless the bread and water
In thy name this holy day.
Let me not forget, O Savior,
Thou didst bleed and die for me
When thy heart was stilled and broken
On the cross at Calvary.
2. Fill our hearts with sweet forgiving;
Teach us tolerance and love.
Let our prayers find access to thee
In thy holy courts above.
Then, when we have proven worthy
Of thy sacrifice divine,
Lord, let us regain thy presence;
Let thy glory round us shine.
While of These Emblems We Partake, no. 173
1. While of these emblems we partake
In Jesus’ name and for his sake,
Let us remember and be sure
Our hearts and hands are clean and pure.
2. For us the blood of Christ was shed;
For us on Calvary’s cross he bled,
And thus dispelled the awful gloom
That else were this creation’s doom.
3. The law was broken; Jesus died
That justice might be satisfied,
That man might not remain a slave
Of death, of hell, or of the grave,
4. But rise triumphant from the tomb,
And in eternal splendor bloom,
Freed from the pow’r of death and pain,
With Christ, the Lord, to rule and reign.
Reverently and Meekly Now, no. 185
1. Rev’rently and meekly now,
Let thy head most humbly bow.
Think of me, thou ransomed one;
Think what I for thee have done.
With my blood that dripped like rain,
Sweat in agony of pain,
With my body on the tree
I have ransomed even thee.
2. In this bread now blest for thee,
Emblem of my body see;
In this water or this wine,
Emblem of my blood divine.
Oh, remember what was done
That the sinner might be won.
On the cross of Calvary
I have suffered death for thee.
3. Bid thine heart all strife to cease;
With thy brethren be at peace.
Oh, forgive as thou wouldst be
E’en forgiven now by me.
In the solemn faith of prayer
Cast upon me all thy care,
And my Spirit’s grace shall be
Like a fountain unto thee.
4. At the throne I intercede;
For thee ever do I plead.
I have loved thee as thy friend,
With a love that cannot end.
Be obedient, I implore,
Prayerful, watchful evermore,
And be constant unto me,
That thy Savior I may be.
Upon the Cross of Calvary, no. 184
1. Upon the cross of Calvary
They crucified our Lord
And sealed with blood the sacrifice
That sanctified his word.
2. Upon the cross he meekly died
For all mankind to see
That death unlocks the passageway
Into eternity.
3. Upon the cross our Savior died,
But, dying, brought new birth
Through resurrection’s miracle
To all the sons of earth.
As always, blatent lies from the "lying for Jesus" crowd.
OK, the non-capitalization of He/Him frustrates me, too.
Does that mean there will soon be a change in the doctrine regarding the Cross, since it means so much to Christians?
In Humility, Our Savior, no. 172
1. In humility, our Savior,
Grant thy Spirit here, we pray,
As we bless the bread and water

TadPole, while there appears to be songs that the mormons sing that mention the Cross that Jesus died on and shed His Bood to save us...
That very Blood is denied and not celebrated in those same songs...
Jesus taught us to eat bread to represent His body broken for us and to drink WINE to represent His Blood that was shed for us until He came back again...
Although some Christians drink grape juice instead of wine, it still represents the Blood of Jesus and there is nothing wrong with that because it is still the “fruit of the vine”
But for the mormons to exchange wine for water is blasphemeous, and denies the power of the Blood of Jesus to save...
This very act of dieobedience and to the instructions of our Lord Jesus Christ, is blatant hypocrisy and blasphemy and excludes mormonism from being recognized or acknowledged as Christianity...
