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

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