I always knew deep down in me

I always knew deep down in me
There was a longing to be free,
A kind of hunger deep inside—
To fill it up, I tried and tried.
There were a lot of things I had;
Some things were good,
Some things were bad.
But all those things of mine before
Don’t satisfy me anymore.

Thank You, Lord Jesus, for the wine
That I enjoy as life divine.
I thank You, Lord, for mercy all
That opened me to heed Your call.
O Lord, now make Your home my heart
And fully saturate each part.
O Lord, my words just can’t express
The way You’ve filled my emptiness!

I always knew deep down in me
There was a longing to be free.
A kind of hunger deep inside—
But now it can be satisfied…
Christ in my heart—the only way
To spread within me day by day.
Lord Jesus! Lord, I have to say
You’re home in me and home to stay!
