Bread of Life

by John Tow

We come to faith

Not by our might,

We see the light

Yet not by sight.



For deep in sin

We have no way

To know what is

The Truth, I say,



'Tis only when

His word so dear

Is spread abroad

Its message clear



That only those

Above the noise

Will rise to hear

His loving voice



Revived at last,

At His behest,

We live again

In Him to rest.



How blessed are we

Saved by His grace

Raised evermore

To seek His face.



Chosen of God.

We will anew

Our lives for Him,

Faithful and true.



Children of His

Praise we the Lord

Who gave to us

His precious Word.



Lamp to our feet

Food for the soul

Help for the work

Joy for the whole.



Our Bread of Life

And nourishment,

How sweet and pure,

God's Testament
