Conversation, dull and common
Balm for scar and wounds begotten.
Silken dressing, healing gauze
Applied a'plenty for lesser cause.
Food for heart at table often
Noted little, soon forgotten.
Yet death awaits for lack of taking
Heart and bond in hunger aching.
Your voice, my salve for troubled thought
The wine of calm and warming brought.
My daily bread of promise given.
Sustaining feast and taste of heav'n.
