XCVIII. Meat and drink indeed

1 To-day Immanuel feeds his Sheep,
The purchase of his Blood:
To-day Jehovah keeps a Feast,
For all the Sons of God.

2 The bread of God is freely giv'n,
The Food of Saints above;
The living Bread sent down from Heav'n,
The Fruit of pard'ning Love.

3 Lo! Christ our Shepherd, gave us Life
To answer all our need;
His Body crucify'd is Meat,
His Blood is Drink indeed.

4 Ye hungry, thirsty Souls draw near,
And living Bread receive;
Taste the Provision of your God,
And freely eat and live.
