Deep down in my soul

Where all my fears arise

My doubts are magnified

And demons testify

Way down deep inside my soul

Where I can’t find

Peace of mind

And joy is far from lasting

 

I thirst

Thirst for something true

Thirst for things not blue

Thirst for living things

That will make me glad

Not sad

Living things

That will lift me up

Not drain my cup

 

I thirst

For my soul’s release

From no inner peace

For me fear’s demise

That I may be wise

For my sorrows end

So I don’t have to pretend

 

How can I quench this thirst of mine?

How can I find

Peace of mind

In the midst of the storms of life

 

Only the Living Water can quench

Only the Living Water can drench

This thirst

This need

This desire

For Joy, Peace and Love.

 

When drink of Him

I will never thirst again

And my thirst

Will be gone

But yet, still longing for more

More peace

More joy

More love

More Living Water.

 

Excuse me

I think it’s time to drink!
