water
Kristy Starling Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That fills me up like an ocean, Lord
You consume me
Something about Your grace
I can't explain why You give it to me
It's a mystery
You're my necessity
You quench the thirst in me
I don't know what I'd do
I couldn't go one day without You
You are like water to me
I can't live, I can't breathe
Your love is everything that I need
You are like water to me
I need to take You in
Like oxygen, every second
Just to make it through
Without Your touch
This world would be too much
I depend on You
You're my necessity
chorus
Raining down on me forever
I need You to flood my soul
chorus
