Once I thirsted for a fountain,

|
| 1. | Once I thirsted for a fountain, |
| | Something deep that would satisfy, |
| | But the fountain that I'd drink from, |
| | Left me searching and still so dry. |
| | Then one day I found Him, |
| | He satisfied my thirst, |
| | Became in me a deeper source |
| | Whence living waters burst. |
| | Now I drink Him! |
| | Jesus, Jesus is my life now, |
| | Jesus, Jesus is my life; |
| | I'm fully satisfied now, |
| | Jesus, Jesus is my life. |
| 2. | After tasting such a fountain, |
| | Longed my heart for a place of springs; |
| | Caught a vision on a mountain, |
| | In Jerusalem's a gathering. |
| | Then one day He found me, |
| | He brought me to the church, |
| | Pleasures here abound fore'er |
| | I've given up my search. |
| | Hallelujah! |
| | Jesus, Jesus is my life now, |
| | Jesus, Jesus is my life; |
| | I'm fully satisfied now, |
| | Jesus, Jesus is my life. |
| 3. | Empty wanderer drop the striving- |
| | Isn't worth all the troublin'; |
| | Open up your heart believing, |
| | Call "Lord Jesus" and He'll come in! |
| | Then today you'll find Him, |
| | And calling on His name, |
| | You're joined to Him, you're one with |
| | Him- |
| | You'll never be the same. |
| | You won't want to! |
| | Jesus, Jesus is my life now, |
| | Jesus, Jesus is my life; |
| | I'm fully satisfied now, |
| | Jesus, Jesus is my life. |
