(\'Fight the good fight\')
Mark 5 v.32-44
******
Jesus met crowd, had compassion
His love, heart, went out to each one
For they were as sheep, no shepherd
Now voice of good Shepherd they heard
The day went on, then \'twas evening
The crowd no food did with them bring
But Jesus said, What food, any
Is there, disciples go and see
They found out five loaves, two fishes
But how this meet the crowd\'s wishes?
For them to all be fed, this small
Amount, how shall it feed them all?
Jesus said for all to sit on grass
Time for provision did not pass
Was not missed, for Jesus did take
The food and blessed it for their sake
Then gave to the disciples there
To distribute to each a share
And they did all eat, had enough
Gathered up all the extra stuff
Was twelve baskets full, the surplus
All there were fed without a fuss
E\'en over five thousand, they saw
And ate of the Lord\'s gracious store
Amazing grace, vast multitude
They did eat, were refreshed, renewed
The Lord\'s glory they saw, rejoiced
His great workings they told and voiced
