The soul pants,
after pastures green
living waters . . .
life-giving streams.
This thirst needs,
spiritual blessings
wrapped in the truth
not just the dressings.
Hunger pains,
not being satisfied
needing more of Jesus
and why He died.
Those deaf ears,
don’t want to hear
no longer willing
to heed or adhere.
Blinded eyes,
can’t really see . . .
if Jesus doesn’t live
inside of thee.
Stony hearts,
wrenched souls
need more than ever
to be consoled.
The soul pants,
for the truth . . .
as in the days
of its youth!

Psalm 42:1
King James Version
“As the hart panteth
after the water brooks,
so panteth my soul
after thee, O God.”
