Break Thou the bread of life,

1.

Break Thou the bread of life,

O 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;

Given me to eat and live

With thee above

Teach me to love thy truth

For thou art love.

3.

O 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
