As we break the bread
Author: Fred Kaan (b. 1929) Hymnal: New Church Praise #5 (1975) Meter: 5.6.6.4 Hymnal Title: New Church Praise Lyrics: 1 Awake from sleep, the night is spent!
The morning star moves up the sky:
the hosts of heaven, with sweet consent,
proclaim salvation's time is high.
Come, praise the long-implored,
our Saviour, Christ the Lord!
2 While man, the rather sin to choose,
prepares the purple, plants the thorn,
the Word of God our flesh endues
that we, by will of God reborn,
the sons of God may be
to all eternity.
3 Let regal power and humble beast
and shepherd, serving both, attend;
since all, from greatest unto least,
are proffered bliss which shall not end,
where spreads his banquet-board
our Saviour, Christ the Lord.
4 In Bethlehem, the House of Bread,
a richer harvest now is sown;
for none at Jesus' table fed
shall ever thirst or hunger own,
but shall from foes be free
to all eternity.
5 Greet the fulfilment of your dreams,
sad earth, by Adam's plague oppressed!
May he whose lowliness redeems
both north and south, both east and west,
now be by all adored,
our Saviour, Christ the Lord. Topics: Communion Languages: English Tune Title: PLATTS LANE
