Mary, who also sat at Jesus' feet and heard His Word. Luke 10:39 Martha, Mary, loving sisters, In their home, a place of rest, Entertained, with hearts o'erflowing, Jesus, Lord, a royal Guest. Martha bustled in the kitchen To prepare a worthy meal, But, alas, with chores distracted, Over-anxious in her zeal. Mary, though her sister chided, At His feet with heart prepared, Not unmindful of her duties, Also sat to hear His Word. Taken up alone with service, We may worship what we do, And forget that first and foremost 'Tis the Lord we keep in view. There is freedom in love's labour, With the soul on joyful wing, For the good part, and most needful, Is communion with the King. Ah, the Lord hath greater pleasure, While He serves, our Great High Priest, To provide for His dear people From His Word a sumptuous feast. From the Fount of living waters, We must drink, yea, more and more, From the well of love unfathomed, Ere for others we can draw.
