When My Soul Is Thirsty
Lord, when my soul is thirsty
I come to You and find
Your Word is like a fountain
Refreshing heart and mind.
Like water in the desert
It gives me hope and cheer,
Reviving and restoring
With truth so sweet and clear.
Revealing thoughts and motives
It cleanses me from sin
To make me pure and holy
So Christ can dwell within.
Through daily meditation
Your Word renews my soul
With comfort, joy, and healing
That make my spirit whole.
It makes me strong and fruitful
And brings me such delight;
I’ll daily seek the Scriptures
To live them day and night.
