Longing

My heart cries out to You, my God.
My soul yearns for You.
The mind cannot comprehend
What my spirit and soul seeks.

There is a longing, deep inside of me,
That cries out for more of You.
I need You near me
Because I am lost without You.

My spirit seeks You, in my dreams.
I hunger, daily, for more of You.
There is such a longing
That, from morning to night,
I think only of You.

I want the intimacy that can
Only come from knowing You more
As I read my Bible and pray,
And daily seek Your face.

Only You can satisfy
This longing in my soul.
