We have wandered, through the desert
Chasing after, what's behind
But You're doing a new thing
You're making new streams
So we open up our lives
Spirit fill us, with living water
We know Your well will not run dry
So come revive us, come wash over
In Your presence we'll find our life
We were thirsty, always drinking
What could never satisfy
But You say, "It's a new day"
You're making a new way
You're filling up what once was dry
Spirit fill us, with living water
We know Your well will not run dry
So come revive us, come wash over
In Your presence we'll find our life
In Your presence we'll find our life
Spring up a well (spring up a well)
Spring up a well (spring up a well)
Spring up a well within our souls
Spring up a well (spring up a well)
Spring up a well (spring up a well)
Come fill us up till we overflow
Fill us up till we overflow
Spring up a well
Spring up a well
Spring up a well
Spring up a well...
