Cobhams Asuquo – For You Lyrics
Like a river needs the stream
Like the grasses need the dew
Like the sail boat needs the wind
Oh Lord my soul thirsts for you
I’m a withered leave in June
I’m a morning without dew
I’m just a lonely afternoon
Oh Lord my soul thirsts for you
Oh Lord you are my shelter
And Lord you are my help
Oh Lord you are my anchor
Let me hide in you forever
My soul thirsts for you
Like a merchant seeks his gain
Like a desert needs rain
Fill my heart with you again
Oh Lord my soul thirsts for you
I’m a hungry suckling child
I’m the dried-out River Nile
Through my toil, my tears, my trials
Oh Lord my soul thirsts for you
Oh Lord you are my shelter
And Lord you are my help
Oh Lord you are my anchor
Let me hide in you forever
My soul thirsts for you (x2)
Like a heavy load to bear
Like a barren woman’s prayer
Hear me Lord I know you’re there
‘Cause oh Lord my soul thirsts for you
Oh Lord you are my shelter
And Lord you are my help
Oh Lord you are my anchor
Let me hide in you forever
My soul thirsts for you (x2)
And as the deer panteth for the water so Lord
My soul thirsts for you
