"Our ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat." - John 6:31

lyrics

Chorus

This manna from heaven, gonna eat it up
His blood of life is gonna fill my cup
I’m gonna keep him hid in my heart
I’m gonna keep him hid in my heart (x2)

Verse #1

Honestly man, it got me trippin’ cuz every time I open this book and look at the pages
Conviction is hittin’ as if it’s written for me through the ages
Grace is so amazin’, swaying my soul for the savin’
He never changin’, he elevates the outcasts and mistaken
A rotten wretch like me, been redeemed. He ate with the sinners
I used to fake great, what a mistake cuz now I’m like what’s for dinner?
I can’t believe it. I used to go day in and day out not reading the Bible
Now it’s like a basic survival supply, a shelter is vital
And you know that they say, an apple day keeps the doctor away
But I say that a proverb a day keep the devil away
And they say the early bird be getting the worm man
I be like the early bird be getting the word in
Keep you sharp as a double edged sword
So you can identify when the lies try to get to you core
I was born in Winnipeg and at a young age
I was told fear the Lord and his ways
Papa read me te proverbs at the end of the day and boy, I ate it up

Verse #2

Silly little me woke up reciting this soliloquy
A sinner saved by grace, made saint, picture perfect imagery
And in my dream I was seeing what was sent to me
Manna from heaven. The Holy Spirit doing his microscopic surgery
Are you a king Solomon, is wisdom enough?
Or do you crave that king Midas touch?
Everything you touch could turn into gold
You’d gain the whole wide world but, in the end, you’d still lose your soul
It’d be better to lose your Dell that have your whole soul thrown into hell
Stop looking at women like they're a product
Every woman is precious, a mom or a daughter
Look for inner beauty, otherwise you'll be caught up
Fornication led him as an ox to led to the slaughter
Now he reproduces how his papa ran away from the responsibility to father.
Get to know the eternal father.
The sun rises in the east, yeast rises in the bowl
Come to Jesus for a feast, release a peace in your soul
Grow a fear of the Lord and his ways, Wisdom in your youth
No cravings for the world, but remain fixed and firm in the truth

Bridge

I choose this day who I will serve
Jesus keep me in your word
I choose this day who I will serve
Jesus wash me in your word
