The Crumbs are Enough – v2

The food so rich, its taste sweet

beyond measure, beyond comparing

even the crumbs are enough

for the dogs, the beggars

ample, sufficient to fill our hunger,

our longings, our needs

to be with you, to drink, to eat

Here to feed the children, but the scraps

cast off and dropped for the dogs

those outside the law, the faith,

able to nourish, to feed all the world

so was His gift, His lesson, His example

from Him all are fed, the chosen ones

and all, to the ends of the earth.
