Bread of the world in mercy broken

by Reginald Heber

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 398.

Verse 1

Bread of the world in mercy broken, Wine of the soul in mercy shed, By whom the words of life are spoken, And in whose death our sins are dead;

Verse 2

Look on the heart by sorrow broken, Look on the tears by sinners shed; And be Thy feast to us the token That by Thy grace our souls are fed. Amen.
