The verse

“I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself up for me.”
Galatians 2:20 · WEB

From the tradition

“The word is added to the element, and there results the Sacrament, as if itself also a kind of visible word.”

Augustine of Hippo · Tractates on the Gospel of John, Tractate 80, §3
