FEED ME O LORD by Okwy Tony Umeh (Rev. Fr.) — Lyrics
About FEED ME O LORD
"Feed Me O Lord" is a gentle, earnest Communion hymn that speaks directly to the heart's hunger for the Eucharist. Okwy Tony Umeh sets a simple, pleading refrain—asking God for His spiritual nourishment—against verses that draw heavily on the humility of the Roman centurion.
During the Communion procession, as the choir leads the congregation to the altar, the verses offer a quiet reflection on human unworthiness and divine grace. Lines like "I am glad to have you under my roof" and "Say one word I will live" echo the very prayers said moments before receiving the sacrament. It is a piece that encourages a deeply personal moment of surrender and trust in the choir loft and the pews alike.
