Stephen Foster — Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread

Father of love Father above Send down thy blessing upon each head Shield us from pride While we here bide Give us this day our daily bread Give us this day our daily bread Humbly we pray Humbly we say Words that our Lord and Redeemer said Trustful and weak Humbly we speak Give us this day our daily bread Give us this day our daily bread Make us resigned Patient of mind While to the throne of thy grace we’re led Make us content With what is sent Give us this day our daily bread Give us this day our daily bread Sinful are we Thoughtless of thee While ’round our footsteps thy care is shed Though we forget Watch o’er us yet Give us this day our daily bread Give us this day our daily bread
