Let Us Be Bread

Let Us Be Bread
Thomas J. Porter

Sung on this track by the TEAL cantor with optional violin

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.

Verse 1:
I am the bread of life, broken for all. Eat now and hunger no more.

Verse 2
You are my friends if you keep my commands,
no longer servants but friends.

Verse 3:
See how my people have nothing to eat. Give them the bread that is you.

Verse 4:
As God has loved me so I have loved you.
Go and live on in my love.
