Lyrics
Verse 1:
Your Word O God is like honey, honey O so sweet. Filling my heart with Your presence, Lord. With You alone will I meet. When doubts arise I go running, running to Your Word. Putting to death whatever fears and lies I have heard.
Chorus:
I'm gonna feed my faith, and starve my fear. With simple child-like faith, I'll always find Him near. When faith goes in, love comes out. When my thoughts are His, no room for doubt.
Verse 2:
I feed my self with Jesus, hungry for your love. I drink your joy into my life, filled with your peace from above. Faith is only substance of things not seen or heard. Given wings we could fly away like a bird.
