I Thirst

One day I came to Him, I was so thirsty
I asked for water, my throat was so dry
He gave me water that I had never dreamed of
But for this water my Lord had to die

He said, "I thirst," yet He made the rivers
He said, "I thirst," yet He made the seas
"I thirst," said the King of the ages
In His great thirst He brought water to me

Now there's a river that flows as clear as crystal
It comes from God's throne above
And like a river it wells up inside me
Bringing mercy and life-giving love

He said, "I thirst," yet He made the rivers
He said, "I thirst," yet He made the seas
"I thirst," said the King of the ages
In His great thirst He brought water to me
In His great thirst He brought water to me
