The finest of the wheat.
Psalm 81:16
Words & Music: Frederick A. Graves, in Winning Songs, edited by John R. Sweney et al. (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: John J. Hood, 1892) (🔊 pdf nwc).
Hungry, Lord, for Thy Word of truth,
Sitting at my Savior’s feet;
Rising, gleaning, just like Ruth,
Feed me on the finest of the wheat.
Refrain
Bread of life it is now to me,
Honey, milk and meat;
In Thy love I will ever be
Fed upon the finest of the wheat.
Work for the Master I will do,
Trusting in His strength so great;
Living in His pastures new,
Feed me on the finest of the wheat.
Refrain
Then to the harvest let us go,
Bugles sounding no retreat;
Workers for Jesus, He wants you
Fed upon the finest of the wheat.
