"O Bread of Heaven, beneath this veil
Thou dost my very God conceal:
My Jesus, dearest treasure, hail!
I love Thee and, adoring, kneel;
Each loving soul by Thee is fed
With Thine own Self
in form of Bread.
O food of life,
Thou Who dost give
The pledge of immortality;
I live, no ‘tis not I that live;
God gives me life, God lives in me:
He feeds my soul, He guides my ways,
And every grief with joy repays.
O Bond of love that dost unite
The servant to his living Lord ;
Could I dare live and not requite
Such love - then death were meet reward:
I cannot live unless to prove
Some love for such unmeasured love.
Beloved Lord, in Heaven above
There, Jesus, Thou awaitest me,
To gaze on Thee with endless love;
Yes, thus I hope, thus shall it be:
For how can He deny me Heaven,
Who here on earth Himself hath given?"

Psalm 147:12-15,19-20
RESPONSE: (Cantor, then all)
The Word was made flesh, and lived among us.
O praise the Lord, Jerusalem!
Zion, praise your God!
He has strengthened the bars of your gates
he has blessed the children within you.
R/ The Word was made flesh, and lived among us.
He established peace on your borders,
he feeds you with finest wheat.
He sends out his word to the earth
and swiftly runs his command.
R/ The Word was made flesh, and lived among us.
He makes his word known to Jacob,
to Israel his laws and decrees.
He has not dealt thus with other nations;
he has not taught them his decrees.
R/ The Word was made flesh, and lived among us.

My Jesus,
I believe that You are present
in this Holy Sacrament of the altar.
I love You above all things
and I passionately desire
to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come spiritually into my soul
so that I may unite myself wholly to You
now and forever. Amen.
Based on a prayer of St Alphonsus Liguorit
Refrain:
Bread of life, truth eternal,
Broken now to set us free.
The risen Christ, his saving power,
Is here in Bread and Wine for me.
Verses:
Lord, I know I am not worthy to receive you.
You speak the words and I am healed.
Here at your table, Loves mystery:
One bread, one cup, one family.
Refrain
Lord by your cross, you reconciled us to the Fa - ther.
We have only to believe.
Your sacrifice, our victory,
Now by your blood we are redeemed.

Lord, you gave your people manna in the des - ert,
Still you fulfil our every need.
Lord when we hunger, Lord, when we thirst,
We come to you and we receive

1. I am the Bread of life.
You who come to me shall not hunger;
and who believe in me shall not thirst.
No-one can come to me unless the Father draw them.
REFRAIN:
And I will raise you up, and I will raise you up,
and I will raise you up on the last day.
2. The bread that I will give
is my flesh for the life of the world,
and if you eat of this bread, you shall live for ever,
you shall live for ever.(Jn 6:50-51)
3. Unless you eat of the flesh of the Son of Man,
and drink of his blood, and drink of his blood,
you shall not have life within you.(Jn 6:53)
4. I am the Resurrection, I am the life.
If you believe in me, even though you die,
you shall live for ever.(Jn 11:25)
FINAL REFRAIN:
And I will raise you up, and I will raise you up,
and I will raise you up on the last day...
I'll raise you up on the last day.
