Oh Lord your word is like a wellspring

Running deep and clear and pure

It will revive our thirsting spirits

It shall insure that we will endure!

Oh Lord your love is like a river

Watering the new Jerusalem

Flowing free from your pierced side

Purifying all that enter in!

Living water still contains

the power to wash away all stains

Of lives polluted by our sins

Only Living water can fully cleanse!

And those who ride the water's course

Will find themselves at mercy's source

The one who is the last and first

And evermore quenches our thirst!

Oh Lord your love is like an ocean

Fed by rivers from the throne of Grace

A sea for cleansing mountains of sin

Cast to the depths, hidden from your face!

Living water still contains

the power to wash away all stains

Of lives polluted by our sins

Only Living water can fully cleanse!

And those who ride the water's course

Will find themselves at mercy's source

The one who is the last and first

And evermore quenches our thirst!
