Your Word becomes the stakes that crucify this flesh
Your truth becomes the thorn that pierces this pride
The sword it rips into my soul and renders it dead
The painful cries ring out inside, to live again then I must die
I'm dying just to live again
I'm drowning just to swim again
In the rivers of undying life
Awakened from a mortal's plight
I'm running after You
I'm reaching after You
O Lord, find me - find me!
In the valley of such dryness; in a land of barrenness
A song I sing of plentitude - faith's song of mercy met
The well of waters burst forth in me - a wellspring of His life
No long is it I that live, the life I live is Christ's

I'm drowning just to swim again
In the rivers of undying life
Awakened from a mortal's plight
I'm running after You
I'm reaching after You
O Lord, find me - find me!
In the valley of such dryness; in a land of barrenness
A song I sing of plentitude - faith's song of mercy met
The well of waters burst forth in me - a wellspring of His life
No long is it I that live, the life I live is Christ's
