After Pentecost    Pentecost 10     John 6:24-35

The Bread of Life (YB No 135)

The gospel writers shared their faith

In Jesus and his word;

Disciples did not understand

The depth in what they heard.

 

He spoke of bread to feed the soul,

To guide our spirit’s growth;

Compared with manna Moses gave -

One was ‘real’ bread.  Not both!

 

The Jesus’ word gives life its zest,

Gives faith its energy;

As ‘Bread of life’ he shows us how

To live abundantly.
