I’m Hungry

written by Daniel Piper

I’m hungry for God because He made me this way.

With an impulsive, addictive personality, I must live in a different way.

Every time I act on my own, I fall flat on my face.

God is forcing me to rely only on Him.

My mind has to be present in His eternal place.

I’ve tried being selfish and doing my own thing.

Oh boy, nothing but pain and heartache does that life bring.

God is forcing me to rely only on Him.

And honestly, I love this way of living.

Surrender and brokenness brings me to victory and glory.

Every day my mind clings to the gospel story.

I’m glued to the cross of Jesus Christ.

There is no other option when you have sins piled mountain high.

When you stay near the cross, you are transformed, never the same.

The love of God is radical, so deep and wide, boggling the human brain.

What father would give up their only son to pay for someone else’s sin?

I cannot get enough of this infinite love.

I crave more and more every day.

This is why I am so hungry.

When you have done the things I’ve done, yet the Father loves me anyway.

I cannot get enough of this love!

There is no place I’d rather be.

I lay my life down on the altar.

Dying in the arms of God, brings new life and serenity.
