My heart is hungry, my spirit doth thirst (Hymn 811)

Verse 1: My heart is hungry, my spirit doth thirst; I come to Thee, Lord, to seek Thy supply; All that I need is none other but Thee, Thou canst my hunger and thirst satisfy. Verse 2: Thou art the food and the water of life, Thou canst revive me, my spirit upbear; I long to eat and to drink here of Thee, Thyself enjoy through my reading and prayer. Verse 3: Thou art the Word with God's fulness in Thee, Thou too the Spirit that God my life be; Thee in the Word I enjoy as my food, Thou as the Spirit art water to me. Verse 4: Thou from the heavens as food camest down, Thou to be drink hast been smitten for me; Thou as the food, my exhaustless supply, Thou as the water, a stream unto me. Verse 5: Thou in the Word art the Spirit and life, Thus by the Word I may feed upon Thee; Thou dost as Spirit in my spirit live, Thus I may drink in the spirit of Thee. Verse 6: Now to enjoy Thee I come to Thy Word, On Thee to feed till my hunger is o'er. Now in my spirit I turn unto Thee, Of Thee to drink till I'm thirsty no more. Verse 7: Feeding and drinking, Lord Jesus, of Thee, Feeding by reading, and drinking by prayer; Reading and praying, I eat and I drink, Praying and reading—Lord, Thou art my fare. Verse 8: Here, O my Lord, may I feast upon Thee; Flood with Thy Spirit and fill by Thy Word; May, Lord, Thou be such a feast unto me As man hath never enjoyed nor e'er heard.
