212. Let Us Break Bread Together

1 Let us break bread together on our knees;
Let us break bread together on our knees.

When I fall on my knees,
With my face to the rising sun,
O Lord, have mercy on me.

2 Let us drink wine together on our knees;
Let us drink wine together on our knees. [Refrain]

3 Let us praise God together on our knees;
Let us praise God together on our knees. [Refrain]
