8584. The Well Of Living Water

1 Oh this well of living water
Springing up within my soul,
Gives me blessèd satisfaction
While the changing seasons roll;
And in Jesus’ love rejoicing,
Still a song of praise I bring,
For the blessèd gift of Heaven,
For this ever-living spring.

Refrain:
For this well of living water
That is flowing now for me,
Songs of praise and adoration,
Blessèd Lord, I bring to Thee.

2 From the depths unknown ’tis flowing,
From the depths of Jesus’ love,
It was purchased by the Savior,
Gift divine from Heav’n above;
He alone can give this water,
Whosoever will may come,
Quench his thirst from this pure fountain,
And from Jesus never roam. [Refrain]

3 So the blessèd news I’m spreading
Of this dear life-giving spring,
Ever pure and free ’tis gushing
As my Savior’s love I sing;
It is flowing, ever flowing
In this grateful heart of mine,
And my tongue shall tell the gladness
Of this matchless grace divine. [Refrain]
