669. 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,
When I fall on my knees,
with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord have mercy on me.

3 Let us praise God together on our knees,
Let us praise God together on our knees,
When I fall on my knees,
with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord have mercy on me.
