I am thirsty to know you more
I don’t think I have felt like this
before
The times I have wasted just playing
around
I would cry tears without making a single
sound
My mood would fluctuate at times
And the walls I would feel I wanted to climb
My desire to be in your sweet presence
I want to feel your deep full resonance
Sometimes things stop me from doing this
And quite often I would simply resist
But only you alone can quench my thirst
And now I feel your longing I feel I
could burst
Without a shadow of a doubt I know you
are near
But there are still elements of unknown
fear
I don’t know why I have taken to feeling
this way
I know at the end of the day you will
just have your say
For you are all knowing, and all seeing and
gentle at that
So, I reach out to you in my chair of
which I am sat
Reading my devotions from the group lamp
and light
These keep me going and you are far from
out of sight
The verses speak to me as I read through
the morning
And sometimes I read them when the sun is
just dawning
There is something so special about being
in Your Word
But having just wakened I know I need to
remain alert
I can hear the birds singing as the early
sun arises
And I know I am not full of so many
surprises
For to reach out to you in the early morn
keeps me going
For it is the tiny mustard seeds in me
that you are sowing
For having been unable to reach out to
you sometimes
And I hate to admit reading Your Word has
been such a bind
But thank goodness this is just a small
spell I went through
For I believe that you have got me this
far in all that I do
I realise that everyone goes through
spells of silence
And I know that you are a God that is not
a tyrant
For you are loving and kind and so
wonderful too
For it is my heart that you are simply
trying to woo
I guess I am not faultless and I have
issues somewhat
But when I gave my life to you I signed
on the dot
For you are with me every single step of
the day
For some things in my life I need to but aside
lay
You know me inside out and have always put
me first
For you I am hungry and really eager to
thirst
It feels when I speak to you alone first
thing
It is my heart and soul to you I want to
bring
For there is no other God that is simply
the best
And I know that there are times that you
put me to the test
For you only have your best interest for
me
I am longing to hear you and longing to
see
And feel you near when I least expect it
There are times that to feel your
presence I kneel or sit
For there is a purpose that you desire to
bring
And that is for me to be still or to your
praises sing
You are wonderful, faithful and an all-knowing
God
And you do not as some think come with an
iron rod
But I love you dearly and You are
definitely not a bore
and you have wings like the eagles that
are ready to sore
