R. If you could only know,
The gift of God’s own Son,
Then you would ask
And He would give you life.
1. For the Lord loved us enough
To die for us upon the cross.
By his death, He has destroyed
Our death and given us his life.
2. Grant us, Lord, this water
So that we may never thirst again.
In this water we receive
The Holy Spirit source of life.
3. Let all you who thirst for living water
Come to me and drink.
Springs of living water flow
From those who put their trust in me.
