1234--I thirsted in the barren land of Babylon

I thirsted in the barren land of Babylon

1234

	1.	I thirsted in the barren land of Babylon
		And nothing satisfying there I found;
		But to the blessed local church one day I came,
		Where springs of living water do abound.
		Drinking at the springs of living water,
		Happy now am I,
		My heart they satisfy;
		Drinking at the springs of living water,
		O wonderful and bountiful supply!
	2.	How sweet the living water from the hills of
		God,
		It's flowing in and flowing out of me;
		O now I've found the place for which I long
		had sought,
		Where there is life and life abundantly.
	3.	O brother, won't you gather in the local
		church?
		A fountain here is flowing deep and wide.
		The Shepherd now would bring you to the
		local church,
		Where thirsty spirits can be satisfied.
