Hunger and Thirst Songtext

von Susan Ashton

You are my Shepherd, I'm Your little lamb
You lead me to the still water here in the pastureland
Sometimes I willfully wander, that's when I stumble and fall
I hunger and thirst for mercy, I hunger and thirst for Your name
If I hunger and thirst for anything but You
I hunger and thirst in vain
You are my Father, I'm Your little child
You make a place at Your table and ask me to stay awhile
I want to stay in Your presence, I want to feast in Your hall
CHORUS
Heavenly Father, watch over me
Take me where healing waters run deep
CHORUS
...I hunger and thirst in vain
I hunger and thirst for Your name
If I hunger and thirst for anything but You
I hunger and thirst in vain
