Bromley by Jeremiah Clarke — Lyrics
1. My God, and is thy table spread,
And doth thy cup with love o'erflow?
Thither be all thy children led,
And let them all thy sweetness know.

About Bromley
Jeremiah Clarke's hymn tune Bromley is a dignified setting of devotional English text. The words speak of the sacrament of Holy Communion, inviting the faithful to partake in the feast prepared by Christ. The text expresses joy and gratitude for the spiritual nourishment offered in this sacred rite, celebrating the 'heavenly food' and 'sacred stream' of Christ's body and blood. This setting for SATB choir offers a clear and sonorous expression of these profound themes, suitable for congregational singing or as a reflective anthem. The tune itself is a noble example of the hymnody tradition, characterized by its clear melodic lines and harmonic support.
