Tune: St Peter [Series: Hymns to Saints Tunes 9]
('How sweet the name of Jesus sounds')
John 6 v.32 - 35
************
Jesus said, Truly I say to
You, Moses, hear, e'en you
Did not give you bread from heaven
God sent you manna then
For God my Father gives to you
The bread from heaven true
The bread of God is He which comes
Down from heaven, on earth homes
He homes here a while, and life gives
Unto the world, so lives
They that in Him believe, for He
The bread of life He be
They that come to Him shall never
Humger, but fed ever
And shall never thirst, never dry
There e'er a full supply

Interesting how this fits into early sacrament later reinstated by Christ. Well written Orchi
Thank you SB.
Most welcome my friend. Hope you feed KP more than bread and water even the navy has deemed that cruel and unusual punishment
I will give her mouldy bread! lol.
Oh dear, Orchi! Popeye has declared a theological emergency! Apparently, someone told him spinach wasn't one of the seven sacraments! He's appealing directly to the Archbishop of Canterbury and his Royal Highness (I won't even begin to tell you how he pronounced 'highness'), the King! HAHAHA! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thank you T. lol.
