The Broken Bread of Heaven

You despised the shame, 

and looked unto the glory set before you

You took our blame 

and took us to Your side, so we adore you

And now you are lifted high

All for the Father’s praise

Conqueror overcomer

Forever to glory raised

Because you condescended

You are with glory crowned

Our treasure and our greatest good

Both  in You to be found

Bread of heaven  that we bless

Let us taste your brokenness

You come to us from heaven

To be bread without leaven

You come to us from heaven

And draw us to your side

Come to us from heaven 

And in our hearts abide

The sinfulness of many hidden in the One

The Sin bearer who was an obedient Son

Was made to be sin for us

Forsaken so we could trust

That  work you came to do was done

So will the work in us that you`ve begun

Because you condescended

You are with glory crowned

Our treasure and our greatest good

Both  in You to be found

Bread of heaven  that we bless

Let us taste your brokenness

You come to us from heaven

To be bread without leaven

You come to us from heaven

And draw us to your side

Come to us from heaven 

And in our hearts abide.
