D.6 I’Ve Received the Living Bread

Chorus-1:
I’ve received the living Bread and my heart is filled with joy. (2)

Chorus-2:
Every one who lives in me shall obtain eternal life. (2)

He says to me: I am the Bread
Which I give to feed your soul:
He who eats of this my flesh,
Will attain the heav’nly goal.

He says to me: I am the Vine
Which will nourish every shoot;
As it feeds upon my sap,
It will give abundant fruit.

He says to me: I am the Life
Which destroys eternal doom;
Whosoever lives in me,
Will rise like me from the tomb.

He says to me: I am the Way
Where my Father waits for you;
If you follow in my steps,
You will see me with him too.

He says to me: I am the Light
In the darkness of your night;
Whosoever welcomes me,
Will be led on paths aright.
