Beneath Our Skin
Thirsty Souls Quenched: City Psalms' Plea for Living Water
Lyrics
The sun is high, the wind it scorches
The intense heat from the sun and the scorching wind
We run and hide, beneath the shade
We seek refuge in the shade to escape
And though we try to be Your portraits
We attempt to represent you, but
These desert eyes dry out and fade
Our eyes in this harsh environment dry up and lose their vibrancy
We want to feel Your Living Water deep beneath our skin
We desire to experience your life-giving presence deeply within us
Our throats are dry, our lips are cracking
Our throats are dry, and our lips are parched
Our tongues get stuck inside our mouths
We struggle to speak or communicate
Our widest rivers, they hold no water
Even the largest rivers fail to sustain water
Just crack and crumble beneath the drought
They crack and disintegrate due to the drought
We want to feel Your Living Water deep beneath our skin
We yearn to feel your life-giving presence deep within us
‘Cause You are the Fountain that ever will flow
You are the everlasting source that will always provide
You are the Water the quenches our souls
Your presence satisfies our innermost needs
Save us from walking this desert alone
Rescue us from journeying through this desolation alone
We want to be Yours God, we want to be Yours
We desire to belong to you
You are the Fountain that ever will flow
You are the everlasting source that will always provide
You are the Water the quenches our souls
Your presence satisfies our innermost needs
Pour out your Spirit and strengthen our bones
Request for spiritual renewal and strength
We want to be Yours God, we want to be Yours
We desire to belong to you
We want to feel Your living water deep beneath our skin
Repeated desire to experience your life-giving presence deeply within us
We want to feel Your living water deep beneath our skin
-We want to feel Your living water deep beneath our skin
-We want to feel Your living water deep beneath our skin
-‘Cause You are the Fountain that ever will flow
You are the everlasting source that will always provide
You are the Water the quenches our souls
Your presence satisfies our innermost needs
Save us from walking this desert alone
Rescue us from journeying through this desolation alone
We want to be Yours God, we want to be Yours
We desire to belong to you
You are the Fountain that ever will flow
You are the everlasting source that will always provide
You are the Water the quenches our souls
Your presence satisfies our innermost needs
Pour out your Spirit and strengthen our bones
Request for spiritual renewal and strength
We want to be Yours God, we want to be Yours
We desire to belong to you
You are the Fountain that ever will flow
You are the everlasting source that will always provide
You are the Water that quenches our souls
Your presence satisfies our innermost needs
Pour out your Spirit and strengthen our bones
Request for spiritual renewal and strength
We want to be Yours God, we want to be Yours
We desire to belong to you
