一　願主為我擘開生命的餅，就像當日旁海對眾所行。
　　靠這聖書引導，我尋求你！我主，神的活道！我渴慕你！

二　願主為我擘開生命的餅，使我充滿主愛，記念主名！
　　釋放我的思想脫離自己，好叫我的傾向都憑著你。

三　惟主解開真理，我纔明白：你的一切信息如何警策；
　　使我與你同情，與你同行；使你榮耀容形銘刻我心。

四　愛主，求你祝福你的信息，像你為餅祝福在加利利；
　　叫我綑綁都脫，鎖鍊都落，自由為你生活，為你工作。

 BREAK THOU THE BREAD OF LIFE

“I am the Bread of life. He who comes to Me will never go hungry.” John 6:35

Break Thou the bread of life, dear Lord, to me, As Thou didst break the loaves beside the sea;
Beyond the sacred page I seek Thee, Lord; My spirit pants for Thee, O living Word!

Bless Thou the truth, dear Lord, to me, to me, As Thou didst bless the bread by Galilee;
Then shall all bondage cease, all fetters fall; And I shall find my peace, my all in all.

Thou art the bread of life, O Lord, to me, Thy holy Word the truth that saveth me;
Give me to eat and live with Thee above; Teach me to love Thy truth, for Thou art love.

O send Thy Spirit, Lord, now unto me, That He may touch my eyes, and make me see:
Show me the truth concealed within Thy Word, And in Thy Book revealed I see the Lord.
