Oh God, You are the fountain

From which I long to drink my fill.
Immerse me deeply, oh do not restrain!
Spirit to spirit, Your love to instill.

Oh God, You are the spring
Of life’s happiness I thirst after.
Source so deep, joy you bring;
just Your touch sparks laughter.

Oh God, You are the well
Of infinite delight
No earthly words can tell
of the passion you ignite!

Oh God, You’re a precious mine
filled with jewels and gold.
Beyond all worth, You’re divine
The price you paid, untold.

Oh God, You are brilliant light
Your radiance erases all shade & shadow.
Basking in Your love, I find my night
is gone and the sun again finds my window.
