Hymns on the Lord's Supper, 110

Jesu, on Thee we feed
Along the desert way,
Thou art the living Bread
Which doth our spirits stay,
And all who in this banquet join
Lean on the staff of life Divine.
While to Thy upper courts
We take our joyful flight,
Thy blessed cross supports
Each feeble Israelite;
Like hoary dying Jacob, we
Lean on our staff and worship Thee.
O may we still abide
In Thee our pardoning God,
Thy Spirit be our guide,
Thy body be our food,
Till Thou who hast the token given
Shalt bear us on Thyself to heaven.
