A poem to my Lord about my desire for him.

I Crave

 

By Peggy Toolen

 

 

I can’t get enough of your love Lord;

I have an aching in my soul to learn your ways,

to soak up your goodness, and be more like you.

As you fill this emptiness within me and I pour it out to the world around me,

I find each day I crave you even more, even more than I did the day before.

 

All my life I’ve needed you, I just never knew what I craved.

I tried filling that hole with other things but nothing satisfied that ache.

You see it all around how people have a craving; there’s emptiness in their soul.

But this world can’t satisfy that craving in the soul, the emptiness, darkness and the cold.

 

I can’t get enough of your love, Lord;

I have an aching in my soul to learn your ways,

I find each day I crave you more, even more than I did the day before.

As you fill this emptiness within me and I pour it out to the world around me,

I find each day I crave you even more, even more than I did the day before.

 

I crave you, Lord; I thirst for you please quench that drought within.

I crave you, Lord; I ache for you. Only you can fill that void.

Everything about us was opposite of you, separated by our sin.

But you gave us a chance to be made one with you, to be with you once again.

 

I can’t get enough of your love, Lord;

I have an aching in my soul to learn your ways,

to soak up your goodness, and be more like you.

As you fill this emptiness within me and I pour it out to the world around me,

to soak up your goodness, and be more like you.
