Bread of heaven, on you we feed

Bread of heaven, on you we feed,
for your flesh is food indeed;
ever may our souls be fed
with this true and living bread;
day by day our strength supplied
through your life, O Christ, who died.

2. Vine of heaven, your precious blood
seals eternal peace with God.
Lord, your wounds our healing give;
to your cross we look and live:
Jesus, here our souls renew,
rooted, grafted, built in you!
