Zeph:1-3

The whole world is corrupted.

The arrogant life is interrupted.

When God comes to judge.

Those who truth now fudge.

For the day of Lord is near.

Judgement for those who don’t fear.

The glory of the Lord who created.

They are now separated.

From the God they did follow.

Their worship just hollow.

Their disaster will become.

Apparent to everyone.

But there will be some left.

Who the Lord has blessed.

Dispite all the oppression.

From those ruling your nation.

So obvious now to see.

How all so desperately.

Have lost all hope.

Can no longer cope.

But it is then that the Lord.

Came down and restored.

All that you once had.

Your heart will be so glad.

As God overcomes.

The evil ones.

John. 6:1-24

In a desolate place.

Realise we have to face.

There is no food to eat.

Lord how can we now meet.

The needs of the people

What we have is so feeble.

There seemed just no way.

That we could feed them today.

But then we heard what he said.

Amazingly we were then fed.

Then off in our old boat.

On calm sea confidently float.

When suddenly tossed by a storm.

Now desperate and so forlorn.

When Jesus came walking out.

Our hearts full of doubt.

Can it really be him.

Walking on water our boat floats in

He said don’t be so afraid.

Then our destination was made

Others alone on the shore.

Came looking for more.

Ps. 85

Lord show favour we pray.

Help us not to fade away.

As we listen to what you say.

On this so worrying a day.

Show us your unfailing love.

Send your Spirit like a dove.

Give your peace from above.

All our doubts give a shove.

Prov. 24:11-14

Lord while I stagger.

The unrighteous swagger.

Does not feel at all funny.

Lead us to sweet honey.
