Author: Mary A. Lathbury; Alexander Groves Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #35 (2010) Meter: 6.4.6.4 D Lyrics: 1 Break Thou the bread of life, dear Lord, to me,
as Thou didst break the loaves beside the sea;
beyond the sacred page I seek Thee, Lord;
my spirit pants for Thee, O living Word.
2 Bless Thou the truth, dear Lord, to me, to me,
as Thou didst bless the bread by Galilee;
then shall all bondage cease, all fetters fall;
and I shall find my peace, my all in all.
3 Thou art the bread of life, O Lord, to me,
Thy holy Word the truth that saveth me;
give me to eat and live with Thee above;
teach me to love Thy truth, for Thou art love.
4 O send Thy Spirit, Lord, now unto me,
that He may touch mine eyes, and make me see:
show me the truth concealed within Thy Word,
and in Thy Book revealed I see Thee, Lord.
