Lyrics:
I was seeking for a sparkling stream,
A fount fulfilling every fancy dream.
While their waters tasted oh so sweet,
My thirst came back to me, my thirst came back to me.
Craving everything my eyes could see,
Chasing waters from a shallow stream –
Still so dry in such a desert land.
My thirst came back again until I turned to Him!
Now, I drink till I am full of Living Water!
I have tasted and I know all grace and goodness flow from God the Fount,
The Fount of Living Water!
Ever flowing like an endless stream,
There rolls a river from inside of me.
Christ is dwelling in my inner deep,
His Words abide in me, His Spirit’s guiding me.
I will drink of Him I cannot see –
Oh, the sweetness of this mystery!
Living Words are breathing life in me –
My thirst is leaving me! My thirst is leaving me!
Now, I drink till I am full of Living Water!
I am tasting and I know all grace and goodness flow from God the Fount,
The Fount of Living Water!
Drink from Jesus and you’ll never die –
The Source, the Stream that brings eternal life!
This, the promise of the Living Christ:
You’ll never thirst again! You’ll never thirst again!
* Come, these waters are for all to drink.
Just come, there’s nothing that you’ll need to bring.
Come, oh sinner, won’t you come and sing:
“I’ll never thirst again! I’ll never thirst again!
Come, and drink till you are full of Living Water!
Come, and taste of Him and know all grace and goodness flow from God the Fount,
The Fount of Living Water!
* The last four lines of the third stanza are only found in the Piano/Vocal version.
