Where is my time spent?
I wish I spent more time alone with you
Here I am thirsty and hungry
Denying the open table you offer me

When did I choose to move away?
I don’t recall a time nor place
In your arms I found the meaning of life
Now to wither like grass in wind

How did I become so distracted?
I lived only for you and your unending love
The things that are in my way block my gaze
Your face still before me almost a memory

How could I leave my first love?
I learned to love because you loved me first
Openly given and openly shared
Now lust fills the cracks of a stone heart

Why have I depraved myself from the waters of life?
The life you give is unending forever satisfying
My soul aches to be refreshed in your springs
In you alone my mind finds strength for fulfillment  

Take me, make me, mold me I pray
To become more like you each day
Willing to be made willing
To submit to your hands
For you are the truth, the life, and the way
