You are my God
Earnestly I seek You
My soul thirsts for You
And all I am longs for You
This land is dry and weary
But I have seen You in Your sanctuary
I see You now
Because Your love
Is better than life
My lips will adore You
And praise You as long as I live
And in Your name
I lift up my hands
And my soul will be satisfied
You are my help
In the darkest of nights
So I sing in the shadow of Your wings
My soul clings to You
And You uphold my cause
So I resolve to put my hope in You
