Josiah Conder (1824) • English

Bread of heaven, on thee we feed, for thy flesh is meat indeed; ever may our souls be fed with this true and living bread; day by day with strength supplied through the life of him who died.

Vine of heaven, thy blood supplies this blest cup of sacrifice; Lord, thy wounds our healing give, to thy cross we look and live: Jesus, may we ever be grafted, rooted, built in thee.
