Subject: ADD: Take, Bless, Break, and Give (Ernest Sands)
I've also found that he wrote a song called Jesus took a loaf of bread - see this link http://clc2.uniservity.com/GroupDownloadFile.asp?GroupID=688743&ResourceId=1983531

TAKE, BLESS, BREAK, AND GIVE
(Ernest Sands)

1 Jesus took a loaf of bread:
When the blessing he had said,
Broke and gave it to his friends:
"Take this and eat."

Refrain
Take, Bless, Break and Give:
That's what Jesus did.
Take, Bless, Break and Give:
That's what Jesus did.

2 Jesus took a wine-filled cup,
Thanks to God he offered up,
Gave the cup out to his friends:
"Take this and drink."


Words and music: Ernest Sands
