What, Never Thirst Again?

Composer: May Stephens, 1903

There flows from Cal­va­ry a stream

For ev­ery sin­ner’s pain

And he that drink­eth

Je­sus said

Shall nev­er thirst again.

What! nev­er thirst again?

No

nev­er thirst again;

What! nev­er thirst again?

No

nev­er thirst again

For he that drink­eth

Je­sus said

Shall nev­er

nev­er thirst again.

Earth’s fount­ains fair but mock our souls

Like de­sert phan­toms lure

And they that drink

the faint­er grow

The keen­er thirst en­dure.

This stream from Cal­va­ry still flows

To bless and cleanse and heal

And he that drink­eth

Je­sus said

New life and rest shall feel.

Oh

bless­èd stream of pure de­light!

Oh

balm for ev­ery pain!

To thee I haste

for Je­sus said

I’ll nev­er thirst again.
