A Hunger for God’s Word

Afresh in us ever
eager for Your Love
a hunger for God’s Word
hope for our lives

Instructions for our path
our walk in this world
walking in the Christ
to lead us safely home

Cleaving to the Word
the lessons of the Way
the light to guide our paths
every single day

Fed by His Words

Not by bread
fed by his words
offering hope
a way through the troubles
a place beyond this world

His message, his life
giving a different direction
Love, not power
caring, not wealth
the way of the Lord

Racing To The Shore
© By: Raymond A. Foss


To be with him,
if only to touch
the edge of his coat
to be healed
Hungry people
racing to the shore
to where he would land
going before him
so they may be healed
so they may be fed
