The man of God, Elisha
Received 20 loaves of bread
Baked from the first ripe grain
"Give it to the people," he said
"How can I set this before 100 men?"
His servant queried
But Elisha answered him,
"This is what the LORD decrees:
They will eat and be satisfied;
There will be enough and more"
Then he set it out before them
Trusting the word of the LORD
It was barely enough barley
For these hungry souls, to eat
But our compassionate God
Supplies more than we need
Christ fed 50 times more men
And with a whole lot less
To show us all, abundantly
How God moves to bless
