THE LIVING-WATER WELL.

[“If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of Him, and He would have given thee living water.”—John iv. 10.]
Well of earth's blessing, living well, Thy healing wonders who can tell! Well of earth's blessing, clear and bright, I quaff thy waters with delight; They satisfy my appetite, O living-water well!
Well of earth's blessing, how I see Thy depth's great fulness all for me; Thy depth a rich, exhaustless store, Great depth of purity and power; I draw and drink, and thirst no more, O living-water well!
Well of earth's blessing, full and pure, With Thee all blessing is secure; For Thee sin's cisterns I forego, Nor want nor weariness I know; Thy waters satisfy me so, O living-water well!
Well of earth's blessing, full and more, Full to the rim and running o'er; Thy streams, like those from Horeb's side, That flashed their liquid, limpid tide, Have maddened millions satisfied, O living-water well!
