A song

I sang this song at church this morning, and loved the words, so I thought I'd share them.


All my life long, I had panted for a drink from some cool spring,
that I thought would quench the burning of the thirst I felt within.

Feeding on the husks around me, till my strength was almost gone,
longed my soul for something better, only still to hunger on.

Poor I was and sought for riches, something that would satisfy,
but the dust I gathered round only mocked my souls sad cry.

Hallelujah, He has found me, who my soul so long has craved.
Jesus satisfies my longing, through his blood I now am saved.

Well of water, ever springing, bread of life so rich and free,
untold wealth that never faileth, my Redeemer is to me.

Hallelujah, He has found me, who my soul so long has craved.
Jesus satisfies my longing, through his blood I now am saved.


Through his blood I now and saved.
