Author: Mary A. Lathbury; Alexander Groves Hymnal: Our Great Redeemer's Praise #430 (2022) Meter: 6.4.6.4 D Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:14-17 Lyrics: 1 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 pants for Thee, O living Word!
2 Break Thou the bread of life, O 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.
3 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.
4 O send Thy Spirit, Lord, now unto me,
that He may touch mine eyes and make me see.
Show me the truth concealed within Thy Word;
and in Thy Book revealed I see the Lord.
5 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.
