Hymn on ONE LICENSE

Give us this day our daily bread. You said You would supply all my needs

Author: Edwin Hawkins
Tune: [Give us this day our daily bread] (Hawkins)
Published in 4 hymnals

Representative Text

Give us this day our daily bread.
You said You would supply all my needs
according to Your riches.
I have but to ask and I shall receive.
To go from here and share this love You gave to me,
to show someone who's lost
and help them find their way,
the way to truth and faith so they can be free like me,
free like me. Lord, we need Your love.
Lord, we need Your peace.
Lord, we need Your joy
Thank You for this day.
Lord, we thank You for this day.
