Oh how I hunger
for the nourishing of Your word
the feeding I receive
through spending time with You
feeling Your presence, Your message
for me in the ancient pages, the law,
the ordinances, the rules, the grace
in the gift of Your Son, so much meaning
dripping from the songs, the prophets,
the history, the parables, the lessons
for the reader, the listener, the sheep,
the servants, following the guidance
of the Spirit, the example of the Shepherd,
the one on whom the dove descended
Oh how I hunger, for You
