Holy God,
We're hungry for your presence,
we're thirsty for your life,
All we need is you.
And even though the questions seem to get louder and louder,
and the doubts seem to parade themselves as facts.
Today we choose to remember:
We're hungry for your presence,
we're thirsty for your life,
All we need is you.
And even though our bodies are sick and worn out,
and our minds are diseased with lies.
Today we choose to proclaim louder:
We're hungry for your presence,
We're thirsty for your life,
All we need is you.
And even though death is way too much of a present reality,
and life can sometimes seem bleak and dreary.
Today we choose to remind each other:
We're hungry for your presence,
We're thirsty for your life,
All we need is you.
And when all around us is joy,
and delightful good gifts from you.
We choose not to forget where they came from:
We're hungry for your presence,
We're thirsty for your life.
All we need is you.
Because Lord, in every season of life,
we want you.
Have mercy on us for we are prone to forget you.
Amen
