As once you broke the loaves beside the sea.
Beyond the sacred page I seek you, Lord;
My spirit waits for you, O living Word.
2 Bless your own word of truth, dear Lord, to me,
As when you blessed the bread by Galilee.
Then shall all bondage cease, all fetters fall;
And I shall find my peace, my All in all!
3 You are the bread of life, dear Lord, to me,
Your holy Word the truth that rescues me.
Give me to eat and live with you above;
Teach me to love your truth, for you are love.
4 Oh, send your Spirit now, dear Lord, to me,
That he may touch my eyes and make me see.
Show me the truth made plain within your Word,
for in your book revealed I see you, Lord.

1 Dame, mi buen Señor, de vida el pan,
como lo hiciste un día junto al mar;
mi alma te busca a ti, verbo de Dios,
y en tu Palabra espero oír tu voz.
2 Bendice, oh Salvador, hoy tu verdad,
cual bendijiste ayer el fresco pan;
en ella nos darás la libertad,
en ella encuentro gozo y solaz.
3 "El pan de vida soy", dice el Señor;
ven, alma hambrienta hoy al Salvador.
"Hambre jamás tendrá quien viene a mí;
sed nunca más tendrá quien cree en mí".
4 Con tu Espíritu toca mi ser,
y abre mis ojos tu verdad a ver.
Muestra tu voluntad; dame tu luz;
quiero en tu Libro verte a ti, Jesús. Scripture: Matthew 9:27-30 Used With Tune: BREAD OF LIFE
Break Now the Bread of Life (Dame, mi buen Señor)
