For the Bread, Which Thou Hast Broken

lyricist: Louis Benson, 1924
Composer: Charles Dickinson, 1861

For the bread

which Thou hast brok­en;

For the wine

which Thou hast poured;

For the words

which Thou hast spok­en—

Now we give Thee thanks

O Lord.

By this pledge that Thou dost love us

By Thy gift of peace re­stored

By Thy call to Heav­en ab­ove us

Hallow all our lives

O Lord.

With our saint­ed ones in glo­ry

Seated at our Fa­ther’s board

May the Church that wait­eth for Thee

Keep love’s tie un­brok­en

Lord.

In Thy serv­ice

Lord

de­fend us

In our hearts keep watch and ward;

In the world where Thou dost send us

Let Thy king­dom come

O Lord.
