Lunchtime
by Jonathan Richard Cring
If Jesus took me to lunch
What would we talk about?
As we sat down there to munch
Would I share my inner doubt?
For as much as I appreciate
The forgiveness of my sin
What would be truly great
Is learning how to win
I desire to have a lovely soul
Sparkling so sublime
But must the years take their toll?
A wrinkle in my time
I want to possess a mother’s voice
Tender, reassuring and kind
But also make a divine choice
In the lover and friend I find
The anthems that I raise
As I sing my songs of praise
Always make me smile
But only last a while
As Jesus and me break the bread
Will I allow him inside my head?
For man does not live by bread alone
And woman is much the same
Flesh of my flesh and bone of my bone
To share a common name
So pass the salt, my dear Lord
There’s no one quite like you
For I refuse to become bored
Never aging, always new
Our guest reader is Lisa, a singer/songwriter living in South Florida with her two children
