Hymn -- by Ed

There’s a hunger in the soul,
that cannot be filled by men
it finds its source in spirit,
and looks for home again,
soaring upward through the heavens,
leaving earth’s firm grasp behind,
and finding its release
in the loving arms of Christ


This hunger is not passing,
its pangs will never wane.
Until the spirit enters,
and makes you whole again.
filling even darkest corner,
with the everlasting light,
and quelling satan’s fire
with the conquering love of Christ


One day I’ll stand before him
In that wondrous shining home
And I’ll sink into the river
that’s flowing from His throne
and reaching up I will eat
from that glorious tree of life
and finally find fulfillment
in the precious love of Christ
