Whoever is thirsty,
Come down to the water;
No need to be hasty,
Bring your son and daughter.
If you have no money,
You can still drink and eat,
Tasting milk and honey
Which is extremely sweet.
Come get some wine and milk,
At no cost it is free;
Try on clothes made of silk,
Perfect got you and me.
Why do you go spend cash?
On things that nourish not;
Fast food that is all trash,
For satisfaction sought.
So listen carefully,
Eat what is good for you;
Thanking God prayerfully,
Of food having value.
Open your ears and eyes,
Listen that you may live;
The Lord will make you wise,
And also He will forgive.
An eternal promise,
With the blessings given;
And you are too precious,
Let not into Heaven.
You will cite a nation,
One that you know of not;
And bring jubilation,
Of hope to those who sought.
Seek the Lord as to find,
Call while He is near;
Let Him nourish your mind,
Giving hope and not fear.
