Hunger and Thirst


I am hungry, I am thirsty

Yet not for anything this world can give

I am hungry, I am thirsty

For the righteousness only God can give


He placed eternity in our minds

Our vision cannot see

But what God has done we cannot find

It’s beyond our ability


You have formed us, you have made us

Yet an inconsolable yearning remains

You have formed us, You have made us

I am rich yet weary so I search in vain


The living waters I will not forsake

Dust off the ashes in my hands 

And broken cisterns I’ll not make

For on the Rock I’ll make my stand


I am hungry, I am thirsty

So I will eat the bread that truly satisfies

I am hungry, I am thirsty

So I will drink of the well that never runs dry


It’s for another world that  I was made

A world of righteousness and peace

An inheritance that never fades

A place of rest and of release


I am hungry, I am thirsty

So I will eat the bread that truly satisfies

I am hungry, I am thirsty

So I will drink of the well that never runs dry


Matthew 5:6; Hebrews 11:15-16
