God, your people are scattered abroad
upon the face of the whole earth;
but you have given us all a hope,
a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul.
You have given us your Living Water,
water that will satisfy our thirst,
water gushing up to eternal life,
water from the river of your delights.
upon the face of the whole earth;
but you have given us all a hope,
a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul.
You have given us your Living Water,
water that will satisfy our thirst,
water gushing up to eternal life,
water from the river of your delights.
