Like a moth drawn to the flame,
I am drawn to the mighty name of Jesus.
Like a deer that pants for water,
My heart cries out to You to fill my life with all of You.

It's You I want to strengthen me
For all the days of my life.

How could I have ever lived without Your precious love?
How could I expect to carry on?
You give love that soothes fire that burns within my soul
And You will always send it 'round my way.
Ah. Oh.

Though a shadow will pass away,
Your love for me will stand the test of time.
When You fill me with Your water
My hands reach out to You to touch my life with all of You.

It's You I want to strengthen me
(You I want.)
For all the days of my life.
(Ah. Oh.)

How could I have ever lived without Your precious love?
How could I expect to carry on?
You give love that soothes fire that burns within my soul
And You will always send it 'round my way.
Ah. Oh.

Lord, I pledge the highest,
The highest that can be from a heart.

It's You I want to strengthen me
(You I want.)
To carry me.

How could I have ever lived without Your precious love?
How could I expect to carry on?
You give love that soothes fire that burns within my soul
And You will always send it 'round my way.

How could I have ever lived without Your precious love?
How could I expect to carry on?
You give love that soothes fire that burns within my soul
And You will always send it 'round my way.
Ah. Oh.

I need Your precious love, Your precious love.
Ah. Oh.
I need Your love.
