I could feel the pressure on
From the flesh and the world taking hold
Trying to pull my attention away
Holy Spirit in me now
How You’re stirring up desires
Sparking the fire now
I’m just thankful for being so thirsty
Oh how You fill me up when I draw near to You
Oh keep me another day, keep me thirsty
I wanna live for You
No matter what I feel, no matter what’s in view
I wanna live for You
No matter what’s in sight, ‘cause You’re the Way, the Truth, the Life
Now it’s time for me to rise
It’s time to get up once again
Stand up in the dirt brush off
Just gonna look Your way
No, not to the right, nor to the left
Nor to the front, or to the back again
Keeping my mind up above
Chorus
And when my heart condemns me
I know You’re greater than my heart
I count it all joy, I count it all joy
I, I wanna live for You
No matter what I feel, no matter what’s in view
I, I wanna live for You
No matter what’s in sight, ‘cause You’re the Way, the Way
I, I wanna live for You
No matter what I feel, no matter what’s in view
I, I wanna live for You
No matter what’s in sight, ‘cause You’re the Way, the Truth, the Life
I could feel the pressure on
From my flesh and the World taking hold
But I’m just so thankful for being so thirsty
