Poem As An Opening Prayer

Poem As An Opening Prayer

3/9/2021

Praise be to God! 

I just found on the internet this morning that one of the poems I have written was used as an opening prayer for a church service in USA. 

The poem is entitled Thirst and Hunger. 

Thirst and Hunger 
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

O how I thirst
And hunger after Thee
My life is first
And foremost for Thee 

Nothing more I yearn 
But to be with Thee 
All I want to learn 
Is Your Truth most certainly 

Not even a moment 
Can I be away from Thee
For I cannot be content
Without Thee 

Your love for me 
Is beyond compare 
Your Grace and Mercy 
You did not spare 

What more can I 
Desire to be 
But to forever 
Abide in Thee
