My Soul Cries - Misty Edwards

As the deer pants for the water

My soul longs for You

As the body dies without water

My soul dies without You

As the deer pants for the water

My soul longs for You

As the body dies without water

My soul dies without You

Take me to the place where You satisfy

Take me to the river

I’ll do anything, God, there is no price

Take me to the river

They may say, «Come on, get over it

Everything is okay»

And they may say

«Why the hunger?

Why the thirsting?

Why the mourning?»

But my soul cries, my soul cries

They may say, «Why the mourning?

Drink be merry

For tomorrow we die, yeah, tomorrow we die»

That’s why, I’d rather sit in the house of mourning

Than at the table, table with fools

My soul cries, my soul cries

My soul cries for You

My soul cries, my soul cries

My soul cries for You

All-my-tears-You-hold-in-a-bottle

You will pour them out, like rain

Weeping endures for the night, for the night

But joy comes in the morning

Joy comes in the morning

Blessed are the hungry

You said it, I believe it

Blessed are the thirsty

You said it, I believe it

Hunger is my gift

Thirst the evidence

That You are drawing me deeper, deeper still

Take me to the place where You satisfy

Take me to the river

I’ll do anything, God, there is no price

Take me to the river

Deep is calling out to deep is calling out to deep

Deep is calling out to deep is calling out to deep

Deep is calling out to deep is calling out, to deep

Yesterday’s depth is feeling really shallow

I’ve gotta go deeper, deeper, deeper still

And all Your waves and all Your billows crash over me

Pulling me deeper still

Deep is calling out to deep is calling out to deep

From glory to glory, from strength to strength

From depth to depth

I’ve gotta go deeper, deeper still

As the body dies without water

My soul dies without You
