LyicsTHE food on which thy children live,
Great God, is thine alone to give:
And we, for grace receiv'd, would raise
A sacred song of love and praise.
How vast, how full, how rich, how free,
Blest Jesus, thy rich treasures be:
To the full fountain of our joys
We gladly come for fresh supplies.
For this, we wait upon thee, Lord,
For this we listen to thy word;
Descend like gentle show'rs of rain,
Nor let our souls attend in vain.
