Lyrics:

Author of life divine,
Who hast a table spread,
Furnished with mystic wine
And everlasting bread,
Preserve the life thy self hast giv'n,
And feed and train us up for heav'n.
Our needy souls sustain
Wth fresh supplies of love,
Till all thy life we gain
And all thy fulness prove,
And, strengthened by thy perfect grace,
Behold without a veil thy face,
Behold thy face.

Notes: SATB with Bass divisi.
