This sacred hour,
O let us feel You near,
In loving pow'r;
Calling our thoughts away
From self and sin,
As to Your banquet hall
We enter in.

Feed us, we pray;
Touch with Your pierced hand
Each common day,
Making this earthly life
Full of Your grace,
Till, in the home of heav'n,
We find our place. Scripture: Matthew 26:20 Used With Tune: BREAD OF LIFE

As Thou didst break the loaves beside the sea;

My spirit pants for Thee, O living Word!

As Thou didst bless the bread by Galilee;
Then shall all bondage cease, all fetters fall;
And I shall find my peace, my all in all.

Thy holy Word the truth that saveth me;
Give me to eat and live with Thee above;
Teach me to love Thy truth, for Thou art love.

Show me the truth concealed within Thy Word,
And in Thy Book revealed I see the Lord. Topics: Bible/Word Scripture: John 6:35 Tune Title: BREAD OF LIFE

Mary A. Lathbury
1841 - 1913 Person Name: Mary Artemesia Lathbury Author (st. 1-2) of "Break Now the Bread of Life" in Psalter Hymnal (Gray) Lathbury, Mary Ann, was born in Manchester, Ontario County, New York, Aug. 10, 1841. Miss Lathbury writes somewhat extensively for the American religious periodical press, and is well and favourably known (see the Century Magazine, Jan., 1885, p. 342). Of her hymns which have come into common use we have:—
1. Break Thou the bread of life. Communion with God. A "Study Song" for the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle, written in the summer of 1880. It is in Horder's (Eng.) Congregational Hymns, 1884.
2. Day is dying in the west. Evening. "Written at the request of the Rev. John H. Vincent, D.D., in the summer of 1880. It was a "Vesper Song," and has been frequently used in the responsive services of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle." It is in the Laudes Domini, N. Y., 1884.
For these details we are indebted to S. W. Duffield's English Hymns, &c, N. Y., 1886.
--John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907)

Lathbury, Mary A., p. 640, i. Another hymn by this writer is, "Lift up, lift up thy voice with singing." [Praise to Christ), in Sankey's Sacred Songs & Solos, 1878.

Person Name: Desconocido Author of "Partenos, Señor, El Pan" in Himnos de Fe y Alabanza In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
