Lyrics
The lyrics are copyright so cannot be reproduced here. But they are currently available on this website.The song starts with a five-line chorus, and this is repeated after each of the three verses. A rough outline is:
Chorus: Don't worry about food or what you are to wear;
Is life not more precious by far?
Christ clothes you in his image
and feeds you with his flesh,
and loves you as you are.
Lord,hear me, I'm hungry once again ...
Lord, I drink, and still I thirst for more ...
Lord, I’m a pauper before the throne of God ...
