NEVER THIRSTING WATER

 

Never thirsting water
One drink satisfies
Come to Jesus fountain
Where hope is realized
His cup, the cup of blessing
Take a sip and see
Drink the living water
Come and be set free
 
With eyes of understanding
That knows us through and through
Sin's Revealer present
Who wants to make you new
Awake to thy condition
Be true as to thy fate
Hasten to the Saviour
T'is satan bids thee wait
 
Know you heaven present
His Spirit living within
Come in full repentance
Let His grace begin
Look ye to that Saviour
That fountain flowing still
Come ye who are thirsting
Look to Calvary's hill
 
Lord I want this Water
I will taste and see
I thirst for what I know not
T'is maybe Lord for Thee
Ah I taste its flavour
Yes Lord it is good
What drink to give to others
Who have not understood
 
Never thirsting water
One drink satisfies
Come to Jesus fountain
Where hope is realized
His cup, the cup of blessing
Take a sip and see
Drink the living water
Come and be set free.

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
