"I am the LORD thy God… open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it" (Psalm 81:10). "My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe My ways" (Proverbs 23:26). "He hath made everything beautiful in His time: also He hath set the world (עוֹלָם ʻôwlâm, eternity) in their heart… and God doeth it, that men should fear before Him" (Ecclesiastes 3:11,14). "For God so loved the world, that He gave his Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16).
There
is a hunger God can fill,
Which
He has placed in human hearts.
He
offers "whosoever will"
This
satisfaction He imparts.
"Give
Me thine heart," the Lord has said,
"And
let thine eyes observe My ways."
Yet
hearts may turn away instead
And
suffer hunger all their days.
The
Lord makes all things beautiful
In
time and in eternity:
He
gave Himself to save our soul,
And
by His truth He makes us free.
Eternal
hunger placed inside
Of
every heart, Lord, which You cherish,
By
endless life is satisfied,
For none who trust in You shall perish.
