Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: Worship and Service #220 (1916) First Line: Bread for the world, in mercy broken Lyrics: 1 Bread for 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;
Thine, Thine the feast, to us the token
That by Thy grace our souls are fed.
3 ‘Twas by Thy death, Thy love revealing,
That full atonement could be made;
‘Tis by Thy stripes our wounds are healing;
And death shall ne’er our souls invade.
4 Look to the hands once pierced and bleeding,
Look to the cross and crimson tide;
Look! to thy Saviour interceding;
Look! ‘twas for thee He bled and died. Topics: Lord's Supper Tune Title: [Bread for the world, in mercy broken]
