Joy of the Feast

I am thankful 
 Immanuel is come. 

The only Eternal Kingdom rules my heart
 and I am filled to brimming over.

With family and friends 
I share a communion
of the Bread of Life
filled with new wine.

I am thankful to You, in-dwelling Presence of Jesus,
 I am clothed with righteousness,

A Thanksgiving feast with meat and gravy and cream?

With but rice today will I be any less satisfied?

Ah, the continual feasting
under the banner of the love of 
the Father!

  
  Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness
 And let Your godly ones sing for joy. Psalm 132:9
