Taste Your Banquet

I would taste your banquet,
Sit at your side and feast.
I'll taste and see that you are good
And see your grace released.
The banquet of the Kingdom
Compels us to attend
Go out and seek to bring the lost
Invite the strangers in.
Lord I would be about the Gospel
I would feed the starving lost
I would bring them to your banquet
Where they'll eat without a cost
To drink of living waters
To eat the sacrifice
Part of the bridely glory
At the wedding supper of Christ

In the Desert

In this desert, in the coldness
Be my pillar of fire burning bright
Lead me onward by your presence
Cover me in the darkness of night.
In the desert, in the burning
Be my pillar of cloud by day
Shelter me from the searing heat
I follow as you guide the way
In this desert in the dryness
Be my rock from which waters flow
I will drink and not be thirsty
To your fountain I will go.
In this desert we become too wise
When on our selves we set our eyes
Turning ever inward we
Forget to look and see
The fire and the cloud and the rock of eternity
Evidence the Father's love for you and me.
In a dry and weary land
Your presence I will pursue
As I abide in you I will hide
I want nothing more than you.
In this desert we become too wise
When on our selves we set our eyes
Turning ever inward we
Forget to look and see
The fire and the cloud and the rock of eternity
Evidence the Father's love for you and me.
