Lyrics
Lost in the desert of a distant dream-- The sun was hot, the sand, hotter-- I bent down to a cool running stream And quenched my thirst with Living Water. And all at once I felt my sins erased-- Wiped clear and clean from the blotter-- For I was saved by amazing grace-- Grace was in that Living Water! Christ took the church as his holy bride-- ‘Twas through His death that he bought her-- So our sins could be washed aside-- Washed clean by Living Water! So drink deep from that Holy Well, And tell your sons and daughters That Christ has broken Satan’s spell By the power of the Living Water! When I am old and long for sleep-- My weary legs prone to falter-- I’ll rest assured His promise He’ll keep-- Given through His Living Water. Christ took the church as his holy bride-- ‘Twas through His death that he bought her-- So our sins could be washed aside-- Washed clean by Living Water! Let the Gospel be the song I sing-- The Living Word be my Psalter! For I was saved by that eternal spring-- I was saved by Living Water! I thank the Son who set me free. I give thanks to God the Father And to the Spirit who baptized me— He baptized me-- He set me free... I was blind, but now I see: That's the power of Living Water.
