Today we will be quiet before you;
we will be still,
we will listen,
and know that you are God.
Today we will choose to serve you,
we are convinced;
we will exalt you
among the nations and in the earth.
Today we will remember--
David was hungry,
your disciples, too;
and you said it was right to eat.
Today, when millions are hungry,
we will realize:
if we exalt you,
we must strive to feed them.
we will be still,
we will listen,
and know that you are God.
Today we will choose to serve you,
we are convinced;
we will exalt you
among the nations and in the earth.
Today we will remember--
David was hungry,
your disciples, too;
and you said it was right to eat.
Today, when millions are hungry,
we will realize:
if we exalt you,
we must strive to feed them.
