Let us be bread, blessed by the Lord,
broken and shared, life for the world.
Let us be wine, love freely poured.
Let us be one in the Lord.
1 I am the bread of life, broken for all.
Eat now and hunger no more. [Refrain]
2 You are my friends if you keep my commands,
no longer servants but friends. [Refrain]
3 See how my people have nothing to eat.
Give them the bread that is you. [Refrain]
4 As God has loved me so I have loved you.
Go and live on in my love. [Refrain] Topics: Body and Blood of Christ; Commandments; Eucharist; Friendship; Hunger; Sharing; Unity; World Scripture: Ephesians 4:4-6 Languages: English Tune Title: [I am the bread of life, broken for all]
