O Food to Pilgrims Given ======================== m: German melody, 15th cent.; w: Maintzich Gesangbuch; trans. by John Athelstan Laurie Riley adapt. by Heinrich Isaac, 1539; harm. by J.S. Bach, 1729 Tune: O Welt, Ich Muss Dich Lassen Meter: 7.7.6.D [Verse 1] O food to pilgrims given, O bread of life from heaven, O manna from on high! We hunger; Lord, supply us, nor thy delights deny us, whose hearts to thee draw nigh. [Verse 2] O stream of love past telling, O purest fountain, welling from out the Savior's side! We faint with thirst; revive us, of thine abundance give us, and all we need provide. [Verse 3] O Jesus, by thee bidden, we here adore thee, hidden in forms of bread and wine. Grant when the veil is risen, we may behold, in heaven, thy countenance divine.
