Authors: Collection of Hymns of the United Brethren, 1825, Montgomery, James
Shepherd of souls, refresh and bless
your chosen pilgrim flock
with manna in the wilderness,
with water from the rock.
2. We do not live by bread alone,
but by your word of grace,
in strength of which we travel on
to our abiding place.
3. O Lord, you gave in love divine
your body and your blood;
that living bread, that heavenly wine
is our immortal food.
4. You met with us in breaking bread;
so as we now depart,
O Saviour, stay with us and spread
your table in our heart.
