From Isaiah 55:3: “Incline your ear, and come to Me; listen, so that you may live. I will make with you an everlasting covenant, My steadfast, sure love for David.”
Filled with thirst and hunger
Listen to God’s trusted Word
Promising to fulfill daily needs
Lifetime’s path no longer blurred
Raining from heavens
Spirit quenches every thirst
Living water flowing ever more
Sin’s darkest journey reversed
Sown with God’s mercy
Harvest of grace now ready
Bread of life feeds His new covenant
Life’s navigation steady
Praises poured with joy
Heavens bursting, full of song
Mountaintops joining valleys below
Abundant life comes along
From Isaiah 55:10: “For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there until they have watered the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater.”
