Author: | Reginald Heber |
Tune: | EUCHARISTIC HYMN |
Composer: | John S. B. Hodges |
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;
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.
Amen.
