|
<p>Break Thou the bread of life, dear Lord, to me,<br>
|
|
As Thou didst break the loaves beside the sea;<br>
|
|
Beyond the sacred page I seek Thee, Lord;<br>
|
|
My spirit pants for Thee, O living Word!</p>
|
|
<p>Bless Thou the truth, dear Lord, to me, to me,<br>
|
|
As Thou didst bless the bread by Galilee;<br>
|
|
Then shall bondage cease, all fetters fall;<br>
|
|
And I shall find my peace, my all in all.</p>
|
|
<p>Thou art the bread of life, O Lord, to me,<br>
|
|
Thy holy Word the truth that saveth me;<br>
|
|
Give me to eat and live with Thee above;<br>
|
|
Teach me to love Thy truth, for Thou art love.</p>
|
|
<p>O send Thy Spirit, Lord, now unto me,<br>
|
|
That He may touch my eyes, and make me see:<br>
|
|
Show me the truth concealed within Thy Word,<br>
|
|
And in Thy Book revealed I see the Lord.</p>
