FIVE LOAVES AND TWO FISH (Free verse) by amanda_dcosta
They heard His voice - they followed Him
Into the desert their hearts to trim
Till to the extreme point of hunger
They discern His holy will.
The plan to send the crowd away
Before the night â the end of day
They never could, nor understood
On what the Master had to say.
His holy will He made them know
Not until fed Heâd let them go,
Food was scarce for the crowd so big
It was just five loaves and two fish.
Then He thanked and praised His Dad
For the little food they had
And they passed it all around
To the crowd who were so glad.
A balance of twelve baskets full
Was gathered at the close of meal.
They marveled at the wondrous way
The impossible became real.
It is all but plain to see
Jesus comes to set us free
If we just lean on Him and know
How His love in us can grow.
Give to all who gather near
In Jesus name â with a heart of cheer
And then blessings will grow and grow
A real twelve baskets full and more.
