The contemporary hymn, You Satisfy the Hungry Heart weaves throughout its five verses central theological understandings of communion. From the illustration of Christ as shepherd call this family together to the mystery of such holy meal we eat together, absolutely beautiful images, Biblical references and lingering tune make this a beautiful hymn.
You satisfy the hungry heart with gift of finest wheat; come give to us, O saving Lord, the bread of life to eat.
May such refrain be our heart’s yearning as well.
Prayer
Christ Jesus, as you indeed provide the bread of life and the cup of salvation to us at the communion table, may this meal be one that truly satisfies, now and forever. Amen.
