Break Thou the bread of life

Dear Lord, to me

As Thou didst break the loaves

Beside the sea

Beyond the sacred page

I seek Thee, Lord

My spirit pants for Thee

O living Word!

Bless Thou the truth dear Lord

To me, to me,

As Thou didst bless the bread

By Galilee,

Then shall all bondage cease,

All fetters fall,

And I shall find my peace

My all in all.

Teach me to live, dear Lord

Only for Thee

As Thy disciples lived

In Galilee

Then, all my struggles o’er

Then  victory won

I shall behold Thee, Lord

The living one.
