I Seek You for I Thirst

Lyrics

REFRAIN:
Though many times I run from You in shame
I lift my hands and call upon Your name
For underneath the shadow of Your wings
My melody is You

O Lord, I seek You for I thirst
Your mercy is the rain on the desert of my soul

O Lord, I raise my lifeless eyes and see Your glory shine
How Your kindess overflows (REFRAIN)

O Lord, Your sanctuary calls
I yearn to be with You in the rivers of Your love (REFRAIN)
