3166. Author of Life Divine

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.
