I searched the world with lustful eye <br />No matter where I’ve been <br />I learned my God You satisfy <br />Far more, than all I’ve seen <br /> <br />In You I find my daily bread <br />In You I get my fill <br />I’m made content with what You’ve said <br />When all around is still <br /> <br />I feed within my daily prayer <br />I thrive on what You give <br />Alone the knowledge that You care <br />Gives me the strength to live <br /> <br />I eat and drink Your every word <br />I know the bible’s true <br />From all on earth I’ve seen and heard <br />There’s nothing quite like You <br /> <br />It’s Christ alone my God I need <br />It’s Christ who makes me whole <br />His righteous flesh on which I feed <br />Sustains my weary soul <br /> <br />Others may mock, may laugh in scorn <br />May doubt You made me free <br />Yet soon I know the day will dawn <br />Where all on earth will see <br /> <br />Till then, this child’s remaining here <br />On You I can depend <br />In Christ my God I’ve nought to fear <br />Wherever now You send <br /> <br />With sin I’ve nothing more to share <br />The world has nought I yearn <br />I’ll eat My God Your finest fare <br />Until my Lord’s return.<br /><br />Michael P.
