I am looking for a song. Can any one help?

The theme is ‘Where do I get this living water’ from the woman at the well scripture (John 4:11).
The theme then deepens on the dynamism of the word of God (
( i.e The urgency required to preach gospel listening, assimilating gospel values in life, living them our sharing word of god with others).

It would be great if the songs has images of living water/rivers/streams/wells/oceans/thirst ect that relate to the theme?
 
Lots of options if you are using the G&P (Glory and Praise) hymnal, 2nd edition, (the green one).

no. 452 There Is a Well/ Un Pozo Hay

no. 454 River of Glory

no. 455 Flow River Flow

no. 648 Peace Is Flowing

no. 706 Come to the Water

Personally speaking, I prefer the last one because it is the only one I know.😛
 
“Come to the Waters” by Jimmy Swaggart
it goes something like this:
“There is a River, that flows from
deep within. There is a fountain
that cleanses the soul from sin.
Come to the waters, there is a
vast supply, come to this fountain
that never shall run dry”
“There was a thirsty woman, who
was drawing from the well, her
life was spent and wasted, her
soul was lost as well, but then
she met the Master, who told her
of her great sin, and then she had
this fountain flowing from deep
within!”

Jimmy Swaggart?!? Good Heavens, no.
Words and Music by John Foley, SJ
 
There are songs and I’m scratching my head trying to think of them besides those listed on this thread.

There are many songs but as for “popular ones”, I’m trying to think of some others.

I’m sure we must be talking about two different songs here.

Come To the Water is in the G&P, 2nd edition, no. 706. We sing it frequently at my Church.

I was referring to the song you quoted in your post #6, which GLam8833 mistakenly referred to as having been written by Jimmy Swaggart. Swaggart recorded it, and it was a big hit for him (in gospel circles), but neither he nor John Foley, SJ, wrote it. Swaggart wouldn’t have been caught dead singing a song written by a Catholic :bigyikes:

Jesus gave me water by Sam Cooke.
 
Fill My Cup, Lord.
Code: 
                                    Like the woman at the well, I was seeking
For things that could not satisfy.
And then I heard my Savior speaking—
“Draw from My well that never shall run dry.” Fill my cup, Lord;
I lift it up Lord;
Come and quench this thirsting of my soul.
Bread of Heaven, feed me till I want no more.
Fill my cup, fill it up and make me whole.
