BREAD ALONE

kingdaniel

                                  BREAD ALONE

1.       “Man will not live on bread alone but will proceed by a word of God.”

Bread alone will not save me from death

           I will live on bread

           I will live to work

           I will then live to laugh

          I will live to sleep

          I would also live to smile

         I would live to be a father

         I would also live to have a family

   I would be able to live because God has granted me life

          Who has granted me life?

          God is greater than bread

          I would live to fight

          I would live to seek peace

          Bread alone can’t give life

 

You will be satisfied once you have feasted on bread

           Life is granted by a word of God

           I have life to be able to live

          I will live to be a servant

          The word came first before the bread

          How could anyone bake bread without the word?

          The word is life

         Man has chosen bread

         He has rejected God

 

  1. Man prefers bread

      He has put his trust in bread

      Man depends on bread

      Eating bread is a delusion and a lie

        “ I am bread.”

Man strives for bread and suffers

You will never suffer if you eat bread

        Bread has taken over the earth

        Man loves his bread

        I am spread in shop windows

       Man craves for me

                      

   I have reconciled lovers

  I have built towns and cities

  I have workmen and women

  I look out for gains and profit

  I hate losses

  I am greedy and selfish

     Leaders have endeared to me

      Many people mourn after me

     They control and possess me

     I have lived for a long time

     I am a jewel in the crown

I am tested and tried from generation to generation

      Yet I have never died

      They have sowed and harvested

 

  1. I am gentle and humble

          I have travelled far and wide

          Crossing borders from nations to nations

          I was part of creation

Man will not depend on the Knowledge of good and evil

              Life needs knowledge and man will strive

             Knowledge needs all life

             Even a good man has life

               Both good and evil have life given by God
