506. Author of life divine

1 Author of life divine,
you have a table spread,
furnished with mystic wine
and everlasting bread;
preserve the life yourself have given,
preserve the life yourself have given,
and feed and train us up to heaven.

2 Our needy souls supply
with fresh supplies of love,
till all your life we gain,
and all your fullness prove,
and, strengthened by your perfect grace,
and, strengthened by your perfect grace,
behold without a veil your face.
