1.	Bread of the world in mercy broken, 
	wine of the soul in mercy shed, 
	by whom the words of life were spoken, 
	and in whose death our sins are dead: 

2.	Look on the heart by sorrow broken, 
	look on the tears by sinners shed; 
	and be thy feast to us the token 
	that by thy grace our souls are fed.
