WE HAVE RECEIVED THE BREAD OF LIFE

We have received the Bread of Life,

Joy fills our hearts again.

We have received the Risen Christ,

Jesus in us will reign.

'I am the Bread', he said,

'That will feed your soul.

Eat of this, my flesh,

Reach the heav’nly goal.'

'I am the Vine... Nourishing each shoot.

Live upon my sap, Give abundant fruit.'

'I am the life... Life all people prize.

If you live in me, With me you will rise.'

'I am the Way... By which you all should go.

Following in my steps, My Father you will know.'

'I am the Peace... No other peace endures.

I am the only love, Which my peace ensures.'

'I am the Lamb... Sacrificed for you.

Take up your cross and be my disciple true.'
