Famine In Their Land
by The Nelons

Album: Southern Gospel Treasury Series

Verse 1
Snow was falling on the streets of Leningrad
As one by one they gathered in his home
One sure that they were followed he led them to a room
Where they warmed their hands in silence round the stove

Cautiously he shares why they have gathered there
He's just received what they've been longing for
Some pages of the Bible though torn and faded out
Were smugguled in and left beneath his door
And he wasn't sure if there'd be anymore

Chorus
There's a famine in their land not of bread not of water
But of hearing the Word of the Lord
There's a famine in their land
They can be fed by no other
Than the bread of life the one they hunger for

Verse 2
Carefully he showed to them a single page
Slowly he began to read each line
Like a feast upon the table they savored every word
Begging him to read it one more time
Till it was firmly planted in their mind

Repeat Chorus Twice
