I Want You

***This was written on July 20, 2015***

I can roam the longest valley here on earth
Passing by the goods that contain so much worth
I can look both high and low, but no matter where I go,
There is just one thing that I surely know

God, I want You. I can’t live without You for a single day.
Oh God, I want You. No force on earth can keep me away.
You gave Your life for a wretch like me. By Your Son, I am set free.
I don’t know why You choose to hear my cry, but here am I
Wanting nothing else but You

I sought riches and earthly pleasures, but now I understand
There’s no place I value more than in Your peaceful, loving Hands
It truly is a shame to thirst for power and fame,
Yet I never once considered the greatness and wonder of Your Name

God, I want You. I lift my voice to testify
Oh God, I want You. Nothing else will satisfy.
Lord, despite my deathly wrong, You reached down and gave me a new song
I’ll sing it to You. Jesus, I pursue You.

God, I want You. I can’t live without You for a single day.
Oh God, I want You. No force on earth can keep me away.
You gave Your life for a wretch like me. By Your Son, I am set free.
I don’t know why You choose to hear my cry, but here stand I
Wanting nothing else but You

No wealth, no glory will keep me from You
Nothing else will ever do
You are eternal, forever true
May my sight forever stay on You
