How foolishly they turn away from You
How foolishly, they turn to other things
Just think, forsaking the fountain
And taking a spade to a desert place
To dig, for a drink
Universe be totally dismayed
Sky above be horribly afraid
Look, we’ve turned our back on the Glory
And flung our arms round created things, to our harm
I have gone to the wells of this world
And drank all I could drink, and never gotten full
Cos like a fool I’ve left my first love
For other lovers who, could never love at all
But now I pray, that I might know:
It’s only You, who can satisfy, my hungry soul, my hungry soul
