Break thou the bread of life, dear Lord, to me, as thou didst break the loaves beside the sea; throughout the sacred page I seek thee, Lord; my spirit pants for thee, O living Word. [Sing to the Lord 373]
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. Sing to the Lord 373 Public domain Text: st. 1 2 Mary A. Lathbury, 1877, alt. 1961; st. 3 4 Alexander Groves, 1913 Tune: William F. Sherwin, 1877
