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 O 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.

O Sing a Song of Bethlehem
Author: Louis F. Benson Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 65 hymnals Scripture: John 6:19 Lyrics: 1 O sing a song of Bethlehem,
of shepherds watching there,
and of the news that came to them
from angels in the air:
the light that shone on Bethlehem
fills all the world today;
of Jesus’ birth and peace on earth
the angels sing alway.
2 O sing a song of Nazareth,
of sunny days of joy,
O sing of fragrant flowers’ breath,
and of the sinless boy:
for now the flowers of Nazareth
in every heart may grow;
now spreads the fame of his dear name
on all the winds that blow.
3 O sing a song of Galilee,
of lake and woods and hill,
of him who walked upon the sea
and bade the waves be still:
for though, like waves on Galilee,
dark seas of trouble roll,
when faith has heard the Master’s word,
falls peace upon the soul.
4 O sing a song of Calvary,
its glory and dismay;
of him who hung upon the tree,
and took our sins away:
for he who died on Calvary
is risen from the grave,
and Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored,
is mighty now to save.

Fears removed—It is I, be not afraid
Author: Jesse Appears in 20 hymnals Scripture: John 6:20 First Line: Unclean, unclean, and full of sin Lyrics: 1 Unclean! unclean! and full of sin,
From first to last, alas, I've been!
Deceitful is my heart:
Guilt presses down my burden'd soul,
But Jesus can the waves controul,
And bid my fears depart.
2 When first I heard his word of grace,
Ungratefully I hid my face,
Ungratefully delay'd:
At length his voice more powerful came,
" 'Tis I" he cry'd "I, still the same,
"Thou need's not be afraid."
3 My heart was chang'd, in that same hour
My soul confess'd his mighty power,
Outflow'd the briny tear:
I listen'd still to hear his voice,
Again he said, "in me rejoice,
" 'Tis I, thou need's not fear."
4 "Unworthy of thy love," I cry'd,
"Freely I love," he soon reply'd,
"On me thy faith be staid;
"On me for every thing depend,
"I'm Jesus still, the sinner's friend.

O Where Is He That Trod the Sea?
Author: T. T. Lynch Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 59 hymnals Scripture: John 6:5-13 Lyrics: 1 O where is he that trod the sea?
O where is he that spake
and demons from their victims flee,
the dead their slumbers break,
the palsied rise in freedom strong,
the speechless talk and sing,
and from blind eyes benighted long
bright beams of morning spring?
2 O where is he that trod the sea?
O where is he that spake
and piercing words of liberty
the deaf ears open shake,
and mildest words artrest the haste
of fever's deadly fire,
and strong ones heal the weak who waste
their lives in sad desire?
3 O where is he that trod the sea?
'Tis only he can save;
to thousands hung'ring wearily
a wondrous meal he gave;
full soon with bread from heaven fed,
their rustic fare they take;
'twas springtide when he bless'd the bread,
and harvest when he brake.
4 O where is he that trod the sea?
My soul, the Lord is here!
Let all thy fears be hushed in thee;
be thine to look, to hear;
he all thy needs will satisfy.
Art thou diseased or dumb,
or dost thou in thy hunger cry?
"I come," saith Christ, "I come!" Used With Tune: SHEPHERD'S PIPES
O Where Is He That Trod the Sea?

quenching thirst in every land.

Christ who suffered in our place.
