Break Thou the Bread of Life

Author: Mary A. Lathbury; Alexander Groves Hymnal: Baptist Hymnal 1991 #263 (1991) Meter: 6.4.6.4 D Lyrics: 1. 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. 2. 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. 3. Thou art the bread of life, O Lord, to me, Thy holy Word the truth That saveth me; Give me to eat and live With Thee above; Teach me to love Thy truth, for Thou art love. 4. O send Thy Spirit, Lord, Now unto me, That He may touch mine eyse, And make me see: Show me the truth concealed Within Thy Word, And in Thy Book revealed I see thee, Lord.
