'Let us Break Bread Together'

A popular African American spiritual, “Let us Break Bread Together” is frequently sung during church services that include the sacrament of communion.

“This hymn or spiritual has found use among young people as it is easy to accompany it with acoustic guitars and therefore lends itself to a freer form of worship,” explained the blog Christian Music and Hymns.

“It has also gradually found acceptance among the older Christians as well. This is clearly shown by its inclusion in many hymn books and albums such as the late 1970s album The Old Rugged Cross by long-standing and revered gospel singer George Beverly Shea.”
