Author: | Josiah Conder, 1789-1855 |
Tune: | JESU, JESU, DU MEIN HIRT |
Composer (melody): | Paul Heinlein, 1626-1686 |
1 Bread of heaven, on thee we feed,
for thy Flesh is meat indeed;
ever may our souls be fed
with this true and living Bread;
day by day with strength supplied,
through the life of him who died.
2 Vine of heaven, thy Blood supplies
this blest cup of sacrifice;
Lord, thy wounds our healing give,
to thy cross we look and live:
Jesus, may we ever be
grafted, rooted, built in thee.
