This was one of the first songs I learned right after brothers in Cleveland at the hazel house helped me get saved in 1990. How my spirit burned with joy every time we sang it!!! I considered the words carefully today. The song contains so many wonderful little gems. The word “what“ in each stanza makes it so clear that what we sometimes take for granted is actually utterly incredible and amazing. I also very much enjoyed today the words “Jesus said“ because it means this is true regardless of my experience. If I am thirsting, it’s not so much about what I’m doing or not doing but more about what I’m believing or not believing. I was strongly convinced this morning to believe his word that indeed I will never thirst again. This part obviously comes from the scene with the Samaritan woman in John. Does anyone know where Jesus says that whoever eats the bread of life will never hunger again. I do accept it as a spiritual truth, but I’m not sure exactly where the verse is? Finally, the last part that really touched me was about tasting the living wine and having the joy of God. I used to think that God‘s joy was immovable, eternal, and just there because he is a joyous person. But with a little bit more maturity today, I understand that his joy comes From an intimate relationship with each of his sons and daughters. When I drink wine with my wife, it’s because I am celebrating a relationship with her. Although the wine I drink with the Lord is far more mystical in terms of imparting life and communing with him, there is still a similar concept, his joy is not static but dynamic and revels in togetherness.

Praise the Lord!
When we eat Christ as the bread of life, we are satisfied. When we eat other things, we remain empty and dissatisfied. Nothing and no one can satisfy our deepest hunger but Christ Himself as the bread of life and a fountain of living water.
He is our Daily Food Supply!! Hallelujah 😀

We’re feeding on the living bread,
We’re drinking at the fountainhead;
And whoso drinketh, Jesus said,
Shall never, never thirst again.
What, never thirst again? No, never thirst again!
What, never thirst again? No, never thirst again!
And whoso drinketh, Jesus said,
Shall never, never thirst again!

I have learned only the first stanza of this hymn as a little girl in Sunday School, in Guyana, South America. I was surprised to find that there are more Stanzas. God is so good. I will be using it for my Children's Sermon at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Brooklyn, USA. God's bountiful blessings on all. Love and peace in Christ Jesus. Amen!
