Well of Waters


"Blessed is the man… [whose] delight is in the law of the LORD… In His law doth he meditate… and he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water" (Psalm 1:1-3).  "The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life" (Proverbs 10:11).  "There shall be a fountain opened… for sin and for uncleanness" (Zechariah 13:1).  "Jesus stood and cried… If any man thirst, let him come unto Me, and drink.  He that believeth on Me, as the Scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.  But this spake He of the Spirit" (John 7:37-39). 

The land is dry wherein we dwell,
Yet we may bring our sons and daughters
To Christ who leads us to His well
That overflows with living waters. 

His Word in which we meditate
Shall give us words that satisfy
The need for wisdom that is great
To show why Jesus came to die. 

Upon the cross on Calvary's mountain,
Our Savior gave Himself to be
For us a sanctifying Fountain
That cleanses from iniquity. 

Lord, thank You for Your invitation
To guilty sinners who were cursed. 
Your well of waters in salvation
Completely satisfy our thirst.
