1.

There’s a fountain of love free to all from above.
From God’s throne this clear water flows out.
Life and healing proceed which restore the bruised reed,
Bringing hope and dispelling all doubt.

Chorus:

O this fountain is open for you and for me.
It is open for you and for me.
Midst the desert and drought, living waters flow out.
Yes, they stream out to you and to me.

2.

Like the vast rolling sea, living waters so free
Fill our hearts and our minds more and more.
Thus the depths will increase bringing fullness of peace,
And the waters from us will outpour.

3.

Do you thirst, do you seek? Are you weary and weak?
To this fountain you freely can go.
You’ll gain courage to fight. You’ll have power and might.
In God’s riches and joy you will grow.
