Text: | Bread of the World |
Author: | Reginald Heber |
Tune: | EUCHARISTIC HYMN |
Composer: | John S. B. Hodges |
1. Bread of the world in mercy broken,
wine of the soul in mercy shed,
by whom the words of life were spoken,
and in whose death our sins are dead:
2. Look on the heart by sorrow broken,
look on the tears by sinners shed;
and be thy feast to us the token
that by thy grace our souls are fed.
