The Living Bread

John 6:43-51

No one comes to Christ except by the Father,
For anyone to come it must be of His desire;
Only then can you call Christ your brother,
After the Holy Spirit has lit your fire.

That last day Christ will take up the dead,
For those that the Heavenly Father agrees;
Just as written by the prophets being said,
Whoever has a solid rock belief Christ sees.

They will have from God all His teaching,
For if their ears were open they shall hear;
Of the Holy Father with all His preaching,
In comforting them from any and all fear.

As for the Father not that anyone ever seen,
Only someone being from Almighty God:
In which descended from Heaven has been,
Blessed by the Father and be given the nod.

He who believes in Christ eternally lives,
For He is the Bread of Life for your spirit;
And the living bread is His body He gives,
To be the way to Heaven that you inherit.
