AmeDeus - Painting Parables For The Thirsting lyrics

rate me

Pour into me<br />

My desert soul thirsts for a flood in time of famine<br />

And in my dreams, you are the water pouring down on me from heaven<br />

<br />

(Chorus)<br />

Pour into me<br />

Pour into my dreams<br />

My soul is thirsting for You<br />

(Pour into me)<br />

I had a will but it bled<br />

I lack the strength to contain<br />

Contain the contents of my heart it bled, it bled, it bled through all the pouring<br />

Out of my heart now empty, and I am left here thirsting<br />

Thirsting for You<br />

Pour into me, please<br />

<br />

(Chorus)<br />

<br />

Perspective changes as this painting you're creating reveals everything<br />

I am a well run dry<br />

And at the bottom you will find<br />

That I'm no more than mud and man-made philosophy<br />

Though there's such beauty to be found in this painting<br />

Named the woman at the well<br />

<br />

(Chorus)<br />

<br />

So empty vessels are most useful it would seem<br />

Because there's more of You when there is less of me<br />

But I can't help but feel unwell while I'm empty<br />

For what's a well without it's water for the thirsting?<br />

Oh sweet angel of repose<br />

Come down and kiss my brow with lips of restoration<br />

And with each stroke your brush reveals<br />

Show me how to give to those needing to be filled<br />

Pour...<br />

<br />
