Filling Hearts and Souls

Oh! feed me Lord for I am starving
For the people all around me are broken
Though I am somewhat of an artist
You are the potter, and the only one
Who can fix and remold your people
Oh! fill me Lord provide the waters
To quench the thirst of your subjects
Place your wine in me
Pour out your liquids in and on us
To quench the thirst of your subjects
Father God I am just a plant
For I'm rooted and grounded
Spread my foliage abound
For the people all around me are broken
You are the potter, and the only one
Who can fix and remold your people
Our thirst our empty hearts
Are filled by Jesus Christ
