THE BLESSED SACRAMENT The Very Angels' Bread Panis Angelicus Tr. by Rt. Rev. Msgr. H. T. Henry, Litt.D. P. Meurers Slowly 1. The very Angels' Bread Doth food to men afford; The types have vanished, Remains the Truth adored: O wonderous mystery Their banquet is the Lord The poor and lowly, bond and free. 2. O God forever blest, O Three in One, we pray: Visit the longing breast Enter this house of clay, And lead us through the Night Unto the perfect Day Where dwellest Thou in endless light.
