There's a river that is flowing ne'er empty
There's a table in the desert where we can feast
There is an open door
To the needy and the poor
Come all you who are thirsty
Come drink, drink in deep
Come all you who are hungry
Come be satisfied, satisfied
Satisfied
There's a river that is flowing from the tree
Where my Jesus was forsaken and I am received
If you have nothing to give
That's all you needed
Come all you who are thirsty
Come drink, drink in deep
Come all you who are hungry
Come be satisfied, satisfied
Satisfied
You satisfy my soul, oh God
You satisfy my soul forever
You satisfy my soul, oh God
You satisfy my soul forever
You satisfy my soul, oh God
You satisfy my soul forever
You satisfy my soul, oh God
You satisfy my soul
Come all you who are thirsty
Come drink, drink in deep
Come all you who are hungry
Come be satisfied
Oh, come all you who are thirsty
Come drink, drink in deep
Come all you who are hungry
Come be satisfied, satisfied
Satisfied
