Today I Dined In Gratitude Poem by Gary James Smith

TODAY I DINED IN GRATITUDE

TODAY I DINED IN GRATITUDE
FOR WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE
AND FEASTED ON THE WORD OF GOD
THROUGH JESUS CHRIST HIS SON
I'VE TASTED OF THOSE HEAVENLY THINGS
WHICH MAKE'S THE SINNER WHOLE
WHAT SATISFACTION THERE I FOUND
WHAT NOURISHMENT FOR THE SOUL

HERE I FIND MY MEAT MY DRINK
TO QUENCH MY HUNGRY HEART
FILLED WITH WONDER OF HIS LOVE
WHOM RIGHTEOUSNESS IMPARTS
SOON US SINNERS SAVED BY GRACE
THROUGH HIM THE GREAT I AM
WILL BE FEASTING WITH OUR LORD
THE MARRIAGE SUPPER OF THE LAMB

HUNGERING AND THIRSTING FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS
MAKE THIS MY DAILY PRAYER
FEASTING AT THY THRONE OF GRACE
WITH YOU THE SERVER THERE
MAKE ME METE TO MEET THEE LORD
TO SERVE YOU IN THIS PLACE
TO KNOW BY FAITH THY LOVE FOR ME
UNTIL I SEE YOUR FACE
