There is a hunger in every heart
There’s a thirst plaguing every soul
There is a starvation that one cannot see
And it’s slowly just taking its toll
Feeding on garbage and drinking of filth
At tables where distractions rule
Where souls becomes sickened and minds becomes ill
At a fraudulent feast for the fool
Come tremble at Beauty, undone by the True
Be devastated by the Good
Mystery and wonder are waiting for you
In the One who would be your soul food
The world’s full of zombies, the scavenging dead
Not knowing what food they might find
The spiritual leper eating rancid bread
The deluded desperate blind
When a banquet is set at a feast for the soul
That nourishes and sustains
Mysterious manna and water that lives
That flows out from God’s very veins
Come tremble at Beauty, undone by the True
Be devastated by the Good
Mystery and wonder are waiting for you
In the One who would be your soul food
In the Son who would be your soul food
Jesus came to become your soul food
John 6:35, 53-58; Matthew 26:26-29
