God's Feast

O God, You have a feast, I want Your food,
You have the most delicious things to eat,
a toast to every taste You do include,
all hunger gone and every bite so sweet.
O God, You have a treasure I desire,
like some crowned beauty, gemmed, bejeweled and pearled,
as gold and silver tested in the fire,
Your wealth's worth more than all our wealthy world.
O God, You have the peace we hunger for,
the power to bring an end to all our pain,
I want the fullness where we want no more,
the satisfaction with no more to gain.
O Lord, let me let go the world and trade
its lures for Yours that never ever fade.
