thirst

My heart just won't
But I must
I must
Lest I return to the dust
Without a true and lasting trust
Trust, wholly in You

But the thirst, seemingly too much to bear
Thrusting myself to despair
Lack of trust, filled with pride
Push You away
I do this
So all my efforts leave me a waste
Barely a memory of a single taste
Hopeless, I make myself my own king
Is this not hopeless?
They leave me all a waste!
They leave me all a waste

Rediscover the pain of discovery
You bring the wonder in misery
The joy in the suffering
I must GO!!!
I must get up!
Must drink!
Is this You or is this me?
I just keep holding on
Your hand has held me from the beginning

To come again
To the Source of us
To rescue us
You rescue us
You do
You do

I come again to the water
To the water I return
There is certain death elsewhere
GOD save me!!!
Let me not take this lightly!
And let me drink
Of You let me drink
Of your suffering, JESUS
Of Your finished work
And we drink!
Redeemed!
Together we sing!
(Let us receive this today!)
I'm drinking all of You
No more will I waste
And beg for more
My heart cries out
You freely give!
Your overflow
You overflow us
Please fill us
Please overflow from us
FAITH in the GOSPEL!!!
