Eat This Bread and Never Hunger

Author: Daniel Charles Damon Hymnal: Voices United #471 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 with refrain Hymnal Title: Voices United First Line: Asking for a cup of water Lyrics: [Refrain:] Eat this bread and never hunger, drink this cup and never thirst; Christ invites us to the table where the last become the first. 1 Asking for a cup of water, Jesus touched forbidden ground; and the woman, with a question, told the world what she had found. [Refrain] 2 Walking down a desert highway, Jesus healed a man born blind; soon the man became a witness to the truth we seek and find. [Refrain] 3 Weeping for his friend at graveside, Jesus felt the pain of death; yet he knew God's power to waken: living water, living breath. [Refrain] Topics: The Church at Worship Holy Communion; liturgical Communion Songs; Choruses and Refrains; Hunger; Jesus Christ Images of; Trust; Epiphany 5 Year A; Epiphany 6 Year A; Proper 23 Year A Languages: English Tune Title: MODESTO
