My Essential Friend

 

John the Baptist ate locusts and wild honey
Simple items to stay alive like food to eat’s
not enough for me
What the ravens eat
isn’t what I need
I need Jesus
Only Jesus

Read the classics, write poetry, sing love songs
When well-rounded then you will thrive and you will lead’s
not enough for me
Jesus is my treats
He’s what makes me breathe
I need Jesus
Only Jesus
Always Jesus

Up in Heaven are groves of such fine lovers
living libraries for all time and always free
That is what’s for me!
I need mystery
for eternity
I need Jesus
Only Jesus
Physically, socially and romantically
always Jesus for me
