380  LONGINGS — For Feeding on Christ

1. O Bread to pilgrims given,
  O Food for saints to eat,
  O Manna sent from heaven,
  For heav'n—born natures meet;
  Give us, for Thee long pining,
  To eat till richly filled;
  Till, earth's delights resigning,
  Our every wish is stilled.
2. O Water, life bestowing,
  From out the Savior's heart,
  A fountain purely flowing,
  A fount of love Thou art.
  Oh, let us, freely tasting,
  Our burning thirst assuage;
  Thy sweetness, never wasting,
  Avails from age to age.
3. Jesus, this feast receiving,
  We Thee unseen adore;
  Thy faithful word believing,
  We take, and doubt no more.
  Give us, Thou true and loving,
  On earth to live in Thee;
  Then, God the veil removing,
  Thy glorious face to see.
