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 longs for Thee O living Word
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
Open Thy Word of truth that I may see
Thy message written clear and plain for me
Then in sweet fellowship walking with Thee
Thine image on my life engraved will be
O send Thy Spirit Lord now unto me
That He may touch my eyes and make me see
Show me the truth concealed within Thy Word
And in Thy Book revealed I see the Lord
Break Thou the bread of life dear Lord to me
That hid within my heart Thy Word may be
Mold Thou each inward thought from self set free
And let my steps be all controlled by Thee
