Your Word is Life to Me Lyrics

I am a stranger in this place

This world is not my home

I want more than it can give

I am a desert needing rain

I'm thirsty for your voice

The very reason that I live

You are the word, my one desire

An all-consuming holy fire

The very breath that I am longing for

My heart is desperate for Your ways

Refine me in Your holy blaze

If that is what it takes to know you more

You are the truth that sets me free

Your word is life to me

Only the power of Your Word

Can melt away these chains

That have held me far too long

So light the fire and let it burn

These shackles and restraints

And I will sing this freedom song

You are the word, my one desire

An all-consuming holy fire

The very breath that I am longing for

My heart is desperate for Your ways

Refine me in Your holy blaze

If that is what it takes to know you more

You are the truth that sets me free

Your word is life to me

Lamp unto my feet

Light unto my path

Shine, Shine on

You are the word, my one desire

An all-consuming holy fire

The very breath that I am longing for

My heart is desperate for Your ways

Refine me in Your holy blaze

If that is what it takes to know you more

You are the truth that sets me free

Your word is life to me
