<poem>1. Author of life divine
<poem>
Who hast a table spread,
1. Author of life divine
Furnished with mystic wine
  Who hast a table spread,
And everlasting bread,
  Furnished with mystic wine
Preserve the life thyself hast given,
  And everlasting bread,
And feed and train us up for heaven.
  Preserve the life thyself hast given,
  And feed and train us up for heaven.


2. Our needy souls sustain
2. Our needy souls sustain
With fresh supplies of love,
  With fresh supplies of love,
Till all thy life we gain,
  Till all thy life we gain,
And all thy fullness prove,
  And all thy fullness prove,
And, strengthened by thy perfect grace,
  And, strengthened by thy perfect grace,
Behold without a veil thy face.
  Behold without a veil thy face.
