Where Is Bread?
(recommended tune: “Abbott’s
Leigh,” 8.7.8.7.D)
“Where is bread?”
the great crowd murmured,
thousands strong, yet all in need.
“Where is bread?” your people wondered,
faced with such a crowd to feed.
Who, Lord Jesus, could have guessed it?
One small boy brought food to share.
Taking what he gave, you blessed it;
all were fed, with much to spare.
Where is Bread? We know their
yearning;
ev’ry day, we wish for more.
God, in time, we’re slowly learning:
all we own can make us poor.
Our possessions can possess us,
leaving hunger deep inside.
Christ our Bread, come now and bless us;
at your feast, we’re satisfied.
“Where is bread?”
the call is rising;
millions cry who must be fed.
God, your answer seems surprising:
“You, my Church, you give them bread.”
Bread to fill each hungry spirit,
bread for hungry stomachs, too!
Give us bread and help us share it.
Richly blest, may we serve you.
