Manna from heaven was God's gift
But the people would soon complain
In no time the people would drift
Back to Egypt they wanted a lift
Soon the miracles became mundane
In their wilderness there was a shift
Turning back to Egypt in their hearts
Remembered the melons, leeks and fish
In the desert they chose to depart
In Egypt they wanted a fresh start
Leaving God's will for their own wish
A failed test on their grade charts
The miracle dried up their being
Now a burden was the blessing
With God they were not agreeing
In disobedience fleeing
For God's will they were just guessing
Revelation then, now not seeing
At their tents they wept and complained
Saying who will give us any meat
Comtinually drifting unrestrained
The wilderness journey disdained
Dreading the manna they had to eat
In Egypt they would rather be chained
Miracles can become boring
Miracles can become routine
God's way we can be ignoring
Missing the Spirit's outpouring
Not trusting in the way unseen
Crashing when we should be soaring
Keep rejoicing in your manna test
Thank Him for all He does each day
Praise Him when you are being pressed
Even through trouble God knows best
Throughout the long wilderness way
In faithfulness you will be blessed
