Break Now the Bread of Life
Author: Alexander Groves, 1842-1909; Mary A. Lathbury, 1841-1913 Meter: 6.4.6.4 D Appears in 723 hymnals Scripture: John 5:39 Lyrics: 1 Break now the bread of life, dear Lord, to me,
as once you broke the loaves beside the sea.
Beyond the sacred page I seek you, Lord;
my spirit longs 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 the Lord.

Break Now the Bread of Life
Beside the gospel pool
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 156 hymnals Scripture: John 5:2 Lyrics: 1 Beside the gospel pool
Appointed for the poor,
From year to year, my helpless soul
Has waited for a cure.
2 How often have I seen
The healing waters move;
And others round me stepping in,
Their efficacy prove!
3 But my complaints remain;
I feel the very same;
As full of guilt. and fear, and pain,
As when at first I came.
4 O, would the Lord appear
My malady to heal;
He knows how long I've languish'd here,
And what distress I feel.
5 How often have I thought,
Why should I longer lie?
Surely the mercy I have sought
Is not for such as I?
6 But whither can I go?
There is not other pool
Where streams of sov'reign virtue flow
To make a sinner whole.
7 Here, then from day to day,
I'll wait, and hope, and try;
Can Jesus hear a sinner pray,
Yet suffer him to die?
8 No--he is full of grace;
He never will permit
A soul, that fain would see his face,
To perish at his feet. Topics: Bethesda's Pool; Supplication for the divine mercy
Beside the gospel pool

Son of God and Son of Man!

Robed in flow'rs of blooming spring;
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer;
He makes our sorr'wing spirit sing.
3 Fair is the sunshine, Fair is the moonlight,
Bright the sparkling stars on high;
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer
Than all the angels in the sky.

Now and forevermore be thine!
