Lyics

BREAD of heaven! on thee we feed,

For thy flesh is meat indeed:

Ever let our souls be fed

With this true and living bread!



Vine of heaven! thy blood supplies

This blest cup of sacrifice:

Lord, thy wounds our healing give;

To thy cross we look and live.



Day by day with strength supplied,

Through the life of him who died;

Lord of life! oh let us be

Rooted, grafted, built on thee!
