1. Just as the clay shaped upon the wheel,
By potter’s hands who form and work the clay,
So is my soul moulded by the Lord,
So does my heart, seek You alone my God.
R. I come to You, Jesus
I come to You, Jesus my Lord ! (2x)
2. Just as the land parched in need of rain,
So does my heart so thirst for You, my God.
You are the source, wellspring of all life,
He who believes will never thirst again.
3. Just as a watchman awaits the dawn,
So does my soul hope only in your Word.
O Lord, your Word is a lamp for me,
A light to guide me on the way to life.
