Very Bread, Good Shepherd, tend us,
Jesu, of Thy love befriend us,
Thou refresh us,
Thou defend us
Thine eternal goodness send us
In the land of life to see;
Thou who canst and knowest
Who on earth such Food bestowest,
Grant us with Thy saints tho' lowest
Where the heav'nly Feast Thou showest,
Fellow heirs nd guests to be.
