Bread of Life
=============
w&m: Rory Cooney, 1987

[Refrain]
I myself am the bread of life.
You and I are the bread of life,
taken and blessed, broken and shared by Christ
that the world might live.

[Verse 1]
This bread is spirit, gift of the maker's love,
and we who share it know that we can be one:
a living sign of God in Christ.

[Refrain]

[Verse 2]
Here is God's kingdom given to us as food.
This is our body, this is our blood:
a living sign of God in Christ.

[Refrain]

[Verse 3]
Lives broken open, stories shared aloud,
become a banquet, a shelter for the world:
a living sign of God in Christ.

[Refrain]
