Yearn for a Pure and Holy Passion

While thinking about zeal, I had two songs which have been percolating in my head and heart. You may know them, but I thought I'd provide the lyrics anyway. O that we may yearn!

Yearn by shane barnard holy design

this place in time

that i might seek and find my God

my God

Lord i want to yearn for You

i want to burn with passion

over You and only You Lord i want to yearn

Your joy is mine

yet why am i fine

with all my singing and bringing grain

in light of Him

Lord i want to yearn for You i want to burn with passion over You and only You Lord i want to yearn

oh You give life and breath

through Him You give all things

in Him we live and move

that's why i sing

Lord i want to yearn for You i want to burn with passion over You, and only You Lord, i want to yearn

One Pure and Holy Passion

Give me one pure and holy passion

Give me one magnificent obsession

Give me one glorious ambition for my life

To know and follow hard after You

To know and follow hard after You

To grow as your disciple in your truth

This world is empty, pale, and poor

Compared to knowing you, my Lord

Lead me on, and I will run after You

Lead me on, and I will run after You
