Thirsty

Father, may we thirst 

for You.

May we be submersed

in You.

May we crave

Your presence 

as we do our next breath.

May we burn with desire!

Set our hearts on fire!

May our spiritual lips 

feel cracked and dry

so, desperate we cry

we have to have You!

May our thirst

be so intense 

our need, immense

that we pant

as we run 

to You, stream 

of living water! 

May we not cup 

our hands and drink,

but dive in to You, 

into Your flow.

Only then will

our thirst be quenched.
