Hunger
Eternal Decision Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hunger, a hunger in my soul
I hunger for your word
I hunger, only you can make
Me whole.
You satisfy my thirst, I hunger
I have strayed from your will.
I had closed up my heart,
But now its open.
Chorus
Hunger pains in my soul
Telling me I'm empty.
Well I can see what I need
Your word can complete me.
Cannot move, cannot think
Without You with me.
What I need, You freely give.
Renew my thinking.
Here am I.
Come live inside.
Chorus
Solo: Tommy
