Along the shores of Galilee,
When Christ five thousand fed,
Not one was omitted
In the breaking of the bread.
Today they die in heathen lands,
They die in want and dread,
For they have been omitted
In the breaking of the Bread.
When Christ five thousand fed,
Not one was omitted
In the breaking of the bread.
Today they die in heathen lands,
They die in want and dread,
For they have been omitted
In the breaking of the Bread.
Lord, I would give them the Bread of Life,
The Living Water too;
My heart cries out, “Oh, here am I,
Ready, Thy will to do.”
The Living Water too;
My heart cries out, “Oh, here am I,
Ready, Thy will to do.”

Long years have passed and few have heard
That Jesus Christ has bled,
That they might feed on Him who died
To be that Living Bread.
To gods of stone and wood they cry,
Yet they are never fed,
For they have been omitted
In the breaking of the Bread.
That Jesus Christ has bled,
That they might feed on Him who died
To be that Living Bread.
To gods of stone and wood they cry,
Yet they are never fed,
For they have been omitted
In the breaking of the Bread.

Great God, who gave Thine only Son,
Help us, now Spirit-led,
To tell the story of Thy love
To those who ask for bread.
Then gladly will we go or send,
Till this blest news has spread,
And they have been included
In the breaking of the Bread.
Help us, now Spirit-led,
To tell the story of Thy love
To those who ask for bread.
Then gladly will we go or send,
Till this blest news has spread,
And they have been included
In the breaking of the Bread.

In Matthew 14:14-21 is the account of the feeding of the 5000. Verse 16 says "But Jesus said to them, they do not need to go away, YOU give them something to eat."
Lord have mercy on me! That I would put away all the excuses within me and feed the hungry and the starving with the Living Bread.

I used to have the book with this song in it. I need all four parts, just can't remember the name of the book. Does anyone know the name of the book, or where I might find it.
Thank you so much.

This has an unusual minor key in the verse, changing to a major key in the refrain. It has a sound similar to Jewish music. I like it.
