I Hunger and I Thirst

(DOLOMITE CHANT. 6.6.6.6)
1.

I hunger and I thirst;
Jesus my manna be:
ye living waters, burst
out of the rock for me.

2.

Thou bruised and broken bread,
my life-long wants supply;
as living souls are fed,
oh feed me, or I die.

3.

Thou true life-giving Vine,
let me thy sweetness prove;
renew my life with thine,
refresh my soul with love.

4.

Since first their course began,
rough paths my feet have trod.
Feed me, thou living bead;
help me, thou Son of God.

5.

For still the desert lies
my thirsting soul before;
O living waters, rise
within me evermore.

This hymn is in the public domain.
