Spring up
well
with water;
Dig Thou
Lord
completely;
Dig away all barriers
That Thy stream flow through me.
Christ
the Rock
is riven;
Living water’s flowing;
But within my heart now
It is blocked from going.
I will dig by praying
Dig the dirt entirely
Thus release the Spirit
Let the stream flow freely.
There’s no need again that
Christ
the Rock
be riven
But unto the digging
That I should be given.
What I need most deeply
Is the Spirit’s filling
That the living water
From my heart be welling.
Dig till there is nothing
Left to block the passage;
Dig until the stream flows
With the living message.
Spring up
well
with water;
Dig Thou
Lord
completely;
Dig away all barriers
That Thy stream flow through me.
