The words
The princess who fed Jesus! (Fed Jesus!)
Elizabeth was a princess, who loved to hop and play,she slipped away to the chapel and knelt right down to pray.
The princess who fed Jesus! (Fed Jesus!)When she gave the hungry bread,it was Jesus that she fed,The princess who fed Jesus! (Fed Jesus!)
Then came a hard and hungry year, the crops failed in the rain,she sold her rings and opened wide the storehouse full of grain.
The princess who fed Jesus! (Fed Jesus!)When she gave the hungry bread,it was Jesus that she fed,The princess who fed Jesus! (Fed Jesus!)
Her husband Ludwig died, she cried, she left the castle hill,she slept that night where pigs had been, and she thanked God still.That is what a saint does.
The princess who fed Jesus! (Fed Jesus!)When she gave the hungry bread,it was Jesus that she fed,The princess who fed Jesus! (Fed Jesus!)
You can do it too, share your bread, and visit someone sick in bed,and when you feed the hungry, it's Jesus you have fed! (Fed Jesus!)
The words in gold are the children’s part: the grown-up sings the line, the little ones shout the echo back.
