Bread of life

1.
Bread of life, whose body, broken,
feeds the hunger of my heart,
may the thanks that you have spoken
bless each loaf I break apart.

2.
Let these hands now calmly folding
speak my gratitude for grace,
lest the treasure I am holding
disappear before my face.

3.
Lord, I welcome you to table;
grace my supper ever new.  
With your feast of love enable
every guest to live for you.

Words:  Kenneth I. Morse, Gospel Messenger, 1955, alt.
