I wrote this about wanting to be close to God and that the yearning never seems to be satisfied.

Oh Lord, my heart is filled with longing for you

I want to know you Lord,
I want to hear your voice as clear as you hear mine
Bold are the words I speak
So I bow my head and timidly lower my eyes

I want to hear you
As clear as day
No mistaking every word you say
Oh Lord, how do I feed this yearning?
Oh Lord, my heart is filled with longing for you
I want to know you Lord
I want to feel your touch
And heal deep down inside
Bold are the words I speak
So I bow my head and timidly lower my eyes

I want to feel Your Hand in mine
And feel your beating heart, divine
Oh Lord, how do I feed this yearning?
Oh Lord, my heart is filled with longing for you, for you

I want know you in every way
I want to serve you all my days
Oh Lord, you know I won’t stop seeking
Oh Lord, my heart is filled with longing for you, for you
