In Love for me (This is My Body)

This Eucharistic hymn was originally a two-verse praise and worship song written by Jimmy Owens for "The Witness" - a musical account of the life of our Lord Jesus through the eyes of Peter.

Three additional verses were written by Damien Lundy, transforming it into a mainstream hymn which is widely used in parishes and schools.   It is published in many current hymnals from Kevin Mayhew Ltd, who hold the copyright to the Lundy verses.
