('Bread of heaven, on thee we feed')
John 6 v.27-35
********
John's Gospel Series (6)
Jesus said, Labour not so
Much for the food that you know
Will satisfy appetite
Temporal, yet needed, right
To sustain us every day
in our human life pathway
But that food, it does perish
Though it to stay we may wish
But labour more for that food
Which endures and which is good
Endures to life e'erlasting
Eternal sustenance bring
For He the Son of man shall
Give us this food, we fare well
For He by God has been sealed
He His Father, He revealed
His Son, He the bread of life
Satisfies us, free from strife
They that come to Him shall ne'er
Hunger, in His life shall share
And they that on Him believe
Shall never thirst, founts receive
Of His living water pure
He shall grant to us e'ermore

In this world of so much starvation surely that belief is being questioned.
Good write.
