| 1. | Many weary years I vainly sought a spring, |
| | One that never would run dry; |
| | Unavailing all that earth to me could bring, |
| | Nothing seemed to satisfy. |
| | Drinking at the Fountain that never runs |
| | dry, |
| | Drinking at the fountain of life am I; |
| | Finding joy and pleasure |
| | In abounding measure |
| | I am drinking at the Fountain of life. |
| 2. | Through the desert land of sin I roam no |
| | more, |
| | For I find a living Spring, |
| | And my cup of gladness now is running o'er, |
| | Jesus is my Lord and King. |
| 3. | Here is sweet contentment as the days go by, |
| | Here is holy peace and rest; |
| | Here is consolation as the moments fly, |
| | Here my heart is always blest. |
| 4. | Here I find a never ending sure supply, |
| | While the endless ages roll; |
| | To this healing fountain I would ever fly, |
| | There to bathe my weary soul. |
