A Once Thirsty Land

 

My soul was parched and broken, Lord,
A dry and barren land,
But You poured Your grace out on me
From Your pierced, bleeding hand.
 
Oh Lord, I called out in my pain
And Your blessings flowed through.
Though I had no reason to live,
I found new life in You.
 
Although my heart was hard as stone,
Your love found its way in
And, though I don’t deserve such grace,
You washed away my sin.  
 
Oh Lord, Your peace, Your gracious love,
Your mercies for the lost
Have brought life to this barren soul,
And bore, for me, the cost.
 
Isaiah 44:3
For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground; I will pour my Spirit upon your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants.
