"O God, Thou art my God; early will I seek Thee: my soul thirsteth for Thee, my flesh longeth for Thee in a dry and thirsty land.... because Thy lovingkindness is better than life" (Psalm 63:1,3).
How dry and thirsty is this land
That cannot quench my thirst.
Like cloudless skies and desert sand,
Its barren land is cursed.
How empty is this world's life,
So void of lovingkindness,
Yet filled with murder, hatred, strife,
Unhappiness, and blindness.
How sweet the love of Jesus is
Who satisfies my soul!
I know He's mine and I am His
And He is in control.
This world's life cannot compare,
No matter how it's sliced,
With love that we are called to share
That's found in Jesus Christ.
