Petra - The Water Is Alive lyrics

rate me

Words and music by Bob Hartman

Based on John 4:10,13-14, John 7:38

Gazing out across this desert world

There are thirsty souls everywhere you go

Searching for a drink to satisfy

Their thirsty hearts till they overflow

They come up empty when the sun goes down

And they look around and they wonder why

Their grand delusion seems to quickly fade

When their own supply leaves them high and dry

They could be drinking living water til they're satisfied

Whosoever will won't ever be denied

(Chorus)

The water is alive, there is no doubt

The water is alive, feel it flowing out

Alive - coming from within

Alive - and I will never thirst again

And now beneath the desert stars tonight

The oasis waits for those who roam

It seems so hard to think there was a time

That I used to call this wasteland home

He lets me drink the living water till I'm satisfied

Whosoever will won't ever be denied

Now and forever it will satisfy your thirsty soul

Now and forever living water makes your spirit whole

You could be drinking living water till you're satisfied

Whosoever will won't ever be denied
