Thirst

As we set our faces towards

Jerusalem,

Knowing that very soon the

squeeze will come,

As the day draws nearer, as the

day draws closer,

There’s such a painful desire to be

like our Saviour.

Oh Jesus, my Lord Jesus,

Only You, only You

Can quench this thirst

in my soul.

2x

Many nights I can’t sleep, everyday

my soul groans in me,

Waiting for the redemption of this

body;

No matter what the world may say,

No matter what the world may do,

It’s a fact that I can’t rest until I’m

perfect.

Before the Masterpiece could

speak it must be smitten

By the determinate counsel of our

God,

What shall I say then, ‘Father take

this cup from me? ’

But nevertheless not my will but

Thine be done.

Signs of the time quickly

approaching,

We can see the whole creation is

groaning;

But, for this purpose came we into

this world;

To fulfill what is written of us.
