John 21: And none of the disciples durst ask Him, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Conscious of Jesus near,
Struck dumb through humble fear,
While we feel His power and love
Taste unutterable peace,
Dare we in His presence move,
Need we ask Him who He is?
We know He is the Lord
By earth and heaven adored,
On His plenitude Ave feed,
Cannot doubt or disbelieve,
Take in Him the real bread,
Bread which none but God can give.
2327- Jesus then comet/;, and taketh bread, and, dry. — xxi. r .
i Jesus, with heavenly bread
Thou dost Thy people feed,
Thoughtful of Thy meanest guest
Thou distributes! the meat,
Master of the gospel feast
Thou bestow'st the power to eat.
All, all the blessings prove
Of Thy redeeming love
Thou who didst the Spirit buy
Dost to each the gift impart,
Dost the purchased grace apply,
Pardon write on every heart.
