I used to think I needed so much,
I thought I needed more.
The list was long of 'desires' unmet.
When, oh when, would these things be mine?
My 'wants' seemed endless,
A constant yearning.
The focus on them was strong
And unrelenting.
The more I had, the less
It mattered.
Slowly but surely
the Truth broke through.
What I wanted,
What I needed,
Father, was You.
Full of love, full of grace.
You have filled, to overflowing,
My empty space.
You have filled me
Through and through.
All I ever want,
All I ever need,
Is You.
~Amen.~
