Pane Di Vita Nuova
Marco Frisina
Bread of New Life
Bread of new life
True food given to men
Nourishment that sustains the world
Splendid gift of grace
You are the sublime fruit
Of that tree of life
That Adam could not touch
Now in Christ given to us
Bread of life
Blood of salvation
True body, true drink
Food of grace for the world
You are the sacrificed lamb
In whose blood is salvation
Memorial of the true Passover
Of the new covenant
Manna that in the desert
Feeds the people on the journey
You are support and strength in the trial
For the church in the midst of the world
Bread of life
Blood of salvation
True body, true drink
Food of grace for the world
Wine that gives us joy
That warms our hearts
You are for us the precious fruit
Of the Lord's vineyard
From the vine to the branches
Flows the vital sap
That gives us divine life
Flows the blood of love
Bread of life
Blood of salvation
True body, true drink
Food of grace for the world
Amen
