Luke 24:35.
Shepherd of souls, refresh and bless
Thy chosen pilgrim flock,
With manna from the wilderness,
With water from the rock.
2 Hungry and thirsty, faint and weak
(As thou when here below),
Our souls the joys celestial seek,
That from thy sorrows flow.
3 We would not live by bread alone,
But by thy word of grace—
In strength of which we travel on
To our abiding place.
4 Be known to us in breaking bread,
But do not then depart—
Saviour abide with us, and spread
Thy table in our heart.
5 Then sup with us in love divine;
Thy body and thy blood,
That living bread and heavenly wine,
Be our immortal food.
