Hymn using same tune: #393 (Tune 1)

 
 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 lifelong wants supply;

As living souls are fed,

O 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 

For still the desert lies

My thirsting soul before;

O living waters, rise

Within me evermore.
