TLH 659: FEED THY CHILDREN, GOD MOST HOLY

Carols and Songs -- Organ Audio

1. Feed Thy children, God most holy,
Comfort sinners poor and lowly;
O Thou Bread of Life from heaven,
Bless the food Thou here hast given!
As these gifts the body nourish,
May our souls in graces flourish
Till with saints in heavenly splendor
At Thy feast due thanks we render.
