Prayer
(inspired by Psalm 63:1,3)
O Jesus!
My soul thirsts for
you! – for your
Spirit’s living waters;
My whole being from the inside out yearns for
your presence;
My personality clings to
you to hold me
together, upright;
My inner depths look up to you, longing for
your smile;
My soul cries out to
you, to flow in your
life now and forever.
O Jesus!
Your love is better than life! – better than any other thing;
Your presence with me is the only thing that satisfies me;
Your personality – wonderfully complete – is what embraces me;
Your deep mercy and grace is all that I live for;
Your life in me and through me to others is my
greatest joy.
