Living Waters: Collab With Jo Daniel

“The Fountain of Living Waters flows, Ready to quench our thirst, Why do ye hew out broken cisterns? Broken cisterns that burst; Drink from the Fount and be satisfied, It will become a well, Water springing to eternal life From your being will swell.” Here’s my soul seeking for contentment From the ultimate Source I come to God Who suffices best Blessing with downpour force. Here’s my heart needing fulfillment gain Christ alone grants so free From divine wealth of grace, love and peace Surpassing wants midst glee. Here’s my spirit thanking the Saviour For Living Waters* gain Refreshing faith with triumphant glow Along service-terrain.** *John 4:13-14 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. **Last three stanzas are added to Jo Daniel’s first two stanzas.
