“Bread of Heaven, on Thee We Feed”

Bread of heaven, on Thee we feed,
for Thy flesh is meat indeed;
ever may our souls be fed
with this true and living bread;
day by day with strength supplied
through the life of Him who died.
Vine of heaven, Thy blood supplies
this blest cup of sacrifice;
Lord, Thy wounds our healing give,
to Thy cross we look and live:
Jesus, may we ever be
grafted, rooted, built in Thee.
– lyrics by Josiah Conder (1824)
