I thirsted in the barren land of sin and shame,
And nothing satisfying there I found;
But to the blessed cross of Christ one day I came,
Where spring of living water did abound.
Refrain
Drinking at the springs of living water,
Happy now am I, my soul they satisfy;
Drinking at the springs of living water,
O wonderful and bountiful supply.
How sweet the living water from the hills of God;
It makes me glad and happy all the way;
Now glory, grace, and blessing mark the path I've trod;
I'm shouting "Hallelujah" every day.
O sinner, won't you come today to Calvary;
A fountain there is flowing deep and wide;
The savior now invites you to the water free,
Where thirsting spirits can be satisfied.
