Luke 9:12-17
(EHV) As the day began to draw to a close, the Twelve came and said to him, “Dismiss the crowd so that they can go to the surrounding villages and farms to find lodging and food, because we are in a deserted place here.”
But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.”
“We have no more than five loaves and two fish,” they replied, “unless we go and buy food for all these people.” (There were about five thousand men.)
He said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.” They did so and got them all to sit down. Then Jesus took the five loaves and the two fish, and, looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke them. Then he kept giving them to the disciples to set before the crowd. They all ate and were satisfied. And they picked up twelve basketfuls of the broken pieces that were left over.
Hymn: TLH 659 : Feed Thy Children, God Most Holy
1. Feed Thy children, God most holy,
Comfort sinners poor and lowly;
O Thou Bread of Life from heaven,
Bless the food Thou here hast given!
As these gifts the body nourish,
May our souls in graces flourish
Till with saints in heavenly splendor
At Thy feast due thanks we render.
