Bread Of Life
1 Whoever eats the Bread of Life
will never hunger, says the Lord.
For all who eat and drink of me
will never die but will receive eternal life.
2 No greater love is there than this:
to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.
I give my life, a sacrifice,
that you beloved friends be free from sin and death.
3 This bread and wine, Body and Blood,
will fill your hunger, quench your thirst
for love and peace, mercy and hope
that only I, the Bread of Life, can satisfy.
4 Whoever does remain in me
And I in him will bear much fruit,
I am the vine, you are the branch.
I pray that you abide in me forevermore.
