Let Us Be Bread

Refrain:

Let us be bread, blessed by the Lord,
broken and shared, life for the world.
Let us be wine, love freely poured.
Let us be one in the Lord.

1. I am the bread of life, broken for all.
Eat now and hunger no more.
One faith, one hope, one symbol of love
given to us in this one bread,
one cup. O let us be one in the Lord. (Refrain)

2. You are my friends if you keep my commands,
no longer servants but friends. (Refrain)

3. See how my people have nothing to eat.
Give them the bread that is you. (Refrain)

4. As God has loved me so I have loved you.
Go and live on in my love. (Refrain)
