Break Thou the Bread of Life,
|
|
| 1. | Break Thou the Bread of Life, |
| | Dear Lord, to me, |
| | As Thou didst break the loaves |
| | Beside the sea; |
| | Beyond the sacred page |
| | I seek Thee, Lord; |
| | My spirit pants for Thee, |
| | O Living Word. |
| 2. | Thou art the Bread of Life, |
| | O Lord, to me, |
| | Thy holy Word the truth |
| | That saveth me; |
| | Give me to eat and live |
| | With Thee above; |
| | Teach me to love Thy truth, |
| | For Thou art Love. |
| 3. | Oh, send Thy Spirit, Lord, |
| | Now unto me, |
| | That He may touch my eyes, |
| | And make me see; |
| | Show me the truth concealed |
| | Within Thy Word, |
| | And in Thy Book revealed |
| | I see the Lord. |
| 4. | Bless Thou the truth, dear Lord, |
| | To me, to me, |
| | As Thou didst bless the bread |
| | By Galilee; |
| | Then shall all bondage cease, |
| | All fetters fall, |
| | And I shall find my peace, |
| | My All in all. |
