At the Appointed Time – v2

At the appointed time,
the time when God had ordained
Even the Son was predestined
for the steps on the path

So at that appointed time
before the betrayal
the bread and the cup were shared
His words transforming the meal forever

The blood, the lamb, the bread
all now of the new covenant
by His sacrifice and saving
we are given new life
