HYMN 168. The panting Soul.
1 One thing, O Lord, thy Saints desire, And would obtain of thee, Within thy Temple to enquire, Thy beauty there to see;
1 ONe thing, O Lord, thy Saints desire, And would obtain of thee, Within thy Temple to enquire, Thy beauty there to see;
2 That there may be our dwelling-place, Let us this mercy crave, And all provision of thy Grace There daily also have:
3 That to our joy we all may drink Of living lasting Springs, And also know and the will do Of thee the King of Kings:
4 And being fed with living Bread, May praise thy Name therefore; Refreshed from thee, from thirsting free, May sing for evermore.
