Words and Music by John Owens
O God, you are my God
And earnestly I will seek you
My soul hungers and my soul thirsts
My body longs for you
In a dry and weary land
Where no water can be found
I will seek you like a well
That is gushing from the ground
I will praise you, yes I will praise you
I will praise you as long as I live
For I’ve seen you in your holy dwelling
And beheld your pow’r and glory
I will praise You as long as I live
In your name I will lift
My hands and sing your praise
In the night I will remember you
Because You are my help
In the shadow of your holy wings
I will sing for purest joy
My soul clings to you Your right hand upholds me
I will not fear and I will not fall
