So Many Books... Lyrics

There is a hunger, a longing for bread
And so comes the call for the poor to be fed
For hungry by far are a billion and more
The wait for the bread of the Word of the Lord
(Chorus)
So many books, so little time
So many hunger, so many blind
Starving for words, they must wait in the night
To open a bible and move towards the Light
There’ll come a time the prophets would say
The joy of mankind will be withered away
A want not for water but a hunger for more
A famine for hearing the word of the Lord
(Chorus)
So many books, so little time

So many hunger, so many blind
Starving for words, they must wait in the night
To open a bible and move towards the Light
The word will go out, accept it return
Food overflowing and so we must learn
(Chorus)
So many books, so little time
So many hunger, so many blind
Starving for words, they must wait in the night
To open a bible and move towards the Light
