222. Bread of heaven, on Thee we feed

1 Bread of heav'n, on Thee we feed,
For Thy flesh is meat indeed;
Ever may our souls be fed
With this true and living Bread;
Day by day with strength supplied,
Thro' the life of Him Who died.

2 Vine of heav'n, Thy blood supplies
This best cup of sacrifice;
Lord, Thy wounds our healing give,
To Thy Cross we look and live:
Jesus, may we ever be
Grafted, rooted, built in Thee.
