Verse 1

I have this thirst / Only You can satisfy

My heart it burns / With an all-consuming fire

 

Verse 2

I search and seek / But You?re never hard to find

The more of You I see / The more that I desire

 

Chorus

I need You / More than the air that I breathe

You?ve captured my heart / Every beat

You?re pulling me closer

I need You / All that I am at Your feet

To pour out my love / And to praise You

Over and over

 

Verse 3

There is no one else / There is nothing like Your love

With every taste I get / Jesus I can?t get enough

 

Bridge

The more I know You / The more I want to

And I can?t get enough
