Man, I need to find something to do with my free time. What is this, like my 15th installment? Anyways, welcome
back to "7th Position C Major Scale Exercises for Beginners." Today we will look at "Break Thou the Bread of 
Life." This old hymn has an interesting range of notes and arrangements. Crescendo would sound nice with the 
vocals (forgive me if I spelled crescendo wrong).

lyrics courtesy of timelesstruths.org:

Break Thou the bread of life, dear Lord, to me,
As Thou didst break the loaves beside the sea;
Beyond the sacred page I seek Thee, Lord;
My spirit pants for Thee, O living Word!

Bless Thou the truth, dear Lord, to me, to me,
As Thou didst bless the bread by Galilee;
Then shall all bondage cease, all fetters fall;
And I shall find my peace, my all in all.

Thou art the bread of life, O Lord, to me,
Thy holy Word the truth that saveth me;
Give me to eat and live with Thee above;
Teach me to love Thy truth, for Thou art love.

Oh, send Thy Spirit, Lord, now unto me,
That He may touch my eyes, and make me see:
Show me the truth concealed within Thy Word,
And in Thy Book revealed I see the Lord.

That's it. Enjoy! Please comment/rate...God bless you! :D
