Like the tablets of my heart I read you And I was drawn by your goodness cause the reputation of your love proceeds you I can only pray that my flesh has died everyday and my life is lived to please you And I'm overjoyed cause no one can take your love away, if they could, I'd beg and plead you And I humbly welcome the sword of your word to cut away all that's not like you in me so I bleed you And btw thanks for removing the scales of sin from my eyes so that I could finally see you And if I haven't said it on this side of the planet my soul says it's nice to finally meet you Your presence smells so pleasant like perfume And if I could fill the whole world with your praises I'd still have much room If I thanked you until I moved home to heaven without taking a breath I'd still feel doomed Cause no amount of worship or praise from these lips could articulate your living water Like monsoon So I opt to drown in your grace and come up for air but only when I have to

I need you
