Never Thirst Again

Never Thirst Again
Words and music by: Lance Appleton

Now from somewhere down deep inside I start to cry
tears of joy falling from my eyes
I can hear the sweetest anthem ever sung
no purer tones on mortal tongue

I’ll never thirst again
I’ll never thirst again

nothing else in all the years I’ve lived
ever has affected me like this
not one of the places I have been
not one of my acquaintances or friends
ever washed away my sins

nothing written in the books I’ve read
not what some philosopher has said
nowhere in the drugs or the alcohol
was there any love like this at all

you have raised … you have raised me
you have raised me from the dead

I’m coming just as you commanded
to the fountain of forgiveness
now I’m plunging under covered by your name
rivers of living water flow from my innermost being
you are the only one who know what it is
you are the only one who know

Now from somewhere down deep inside i start to cry
tears of joy falling from my eyes
I can hear the sweetest anthem ever sung
no purer tones on mortal tongue

I’ll never thirst again
I’ll never thirst again

Spring up o well of joy and gladness
spring up O well of sweet salvation
Holy Ghost make intercession

Rivers of water flow from my innermost being
You are the only one who knows what it is …
You are the only one who knows what it is I’m needing
life’s eternal mysteries heavens revelations
like a flower opening filled with holy
filled with holy , filled with holy fragrance.

Now from somewhere down deep inside i start to cry
tears of joy falling from my eyes
I can hear the sweetest anthem ever sung
no purer tones on mortal tongue

I’ll never thirst again
I’ll never thirst again … I’ll never thirst again
