While I wander through this wilderness
So parched and weary from the heat
I find the Fount of pacifying love
But I won't drink
I wonder why I feel so empty
Scavenging for anything to eat
Ignoring Heaven's Bread of Life
Which You have laid out right before me
Found the Door to life abundant
Know the Way, but I won't go
I have spurned the rest that I was promised
Searching everywhere for peace
I try so hard to find fulfillment
Yet neglect the greatest need
Pretending not to see the Shepherd
Proving but a helpless sheep
Aware that You are victory
Yet holding fast to my defeat
I see within my reach contentment
Know the way, but I won't go
I hear You calling out to me
But I won't go
