A beautiful, dramatic choral composition portraying the miracle of Jesus in feeding the 5000. Â Music by Kevin G. Pace. Â Text by Mary Ann W. Snowball.
Text:
Jesus lifted up his eyes while sitting on a mount.
There a multitude had come, where thousands was the count.
Jesus asked of Philip then, “Whence shall we buy some bread?â€
Feeding hungry souls was such a way the Master led.
One small lad had barley loaves, just five that day were found.
And small fishes, only two, were set upon the ground.
“Bring them hither,†Jesus said, then blessed and brake the loaves.
These became like manna there, this miracle to show.
Jesus asked disciples close to share the scanty feast.
Each did eat, not sparingly, ‘til all were filled and pleased.
Then He called disciples there to gather what remained;
Twelve full baskets still were left, all through the Savior’s Name.
Jesus also fills our lives when we might have a lack.
Needing aid we lend our best, then He gives as we act.
Listening to all we pledge He takes each offering,
Always giving more to us than what we humbly bring.
Chorus:
Granting needs and pure desires is what our Savior seeks.
As He fills our daily cups, we aid his heartfelt plea.
He will ever honor us by giving what we lack.
This, this precious miracle, is what He gives us back.
