Here are the lyrics to the Thanksgiving song that Johnny Cash recorded:

BREAKING BREAD
Words and music by Randy L. George
As recorded by Johnny Cash on "Unearthed" (2003)

CHORUS: Breaking Bread, Breaking Bread,
We are gathered here together to break bread.
Breaking Bread, Breaking Bread,
We are gathered here together to break bread.

It's not the barley or the wheat,
It's not the oven or the heat
That makes this bread so good to eat;
It's the needing and the sharing that makes the meal complete. CHORUS

Upon the water bread is cast;
The last is first, the first is last.
For everyone who eats this bread
There are thousands, maybe more, that will be fed. CHORUS
