! FATHER, Who dost Thy children feed

With Manna rainèd from above; Who dost the Saving Chalice give, Filled by Thy Hand in wondrous love: We praise Thee for Thy mercies sent To us in this Great Sacrament.

Hymns Ancient and Modern, 28, 370. 401 He

4 Ye holy Angels, who, with us, Around God's Altar lowly bow, Adoring there the Crucified,

Whose Precious Death is pleaded now, O praise Him for His mercies sent To us in this Great Sacrament!

2 O Word made Flesh, Whom we adore, The Living Bread sent down from heaven! Whose wondrous Passion here shown forth Is the great pledge of sin forgiven; We praise Thee for Thy mercies sent To us in this Great Sacrament.

3 O Holy Spirit, Who dost deign

These earthly elements to bless, Making the Bread His Flesh to be, The Wine His Blood, as we confess; We praise Thee for Thy mercies sent To us in this Great Sacrament.

5 Ye blessed Saints, enthroned on high, Who once the paths of earth did tread, Who reached in safety God's abode,

As strengthened by this Living Bread; O praise Ilim for His mercies sent To us in this Great Sacrament!

6 O Holy Father, Holy Son,

And Holy Spirit, Whom we love, Guide, strengthen, save us here below, And bring us to our home above, To praise Thee for Thy mercies sent To us in this Great Sacrament! Amen.
