Isaiah 51:1-2<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

“<\/em>Ho! Everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come buy and eat. Yes, come buy wine and milk without money and without price. Why do you spend money for what is not bread, and your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, and let your soul delight itself in abundance.”<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"Watch<\/a><\/p>\n

Water, water everywhere\u2026and not a drop to drink!\u00a0<\/strong>Those words have probably been uttered many times by shipwreck victims stranded in the middle of the ocean. The salt-laden sea seems to mock them — there is so much water all around them, but it would be poison to their system to drink it.<\/p>\n

Lucy Jane Rider Meyer wrote the words of today’s hymn. She was born on a Vermont farm in 1849. Lucy was a teacher and not only founded many high schools, but went on to teach chemistry at\u00a0McKendree College<\/em>, a school for freed blacks in North Carolina. She was one of the first female professors.<\/p>\n

What a refreshing thought that a brilliant professor was able to use the\u00a0Word of God<\/em>\u00a0to bring music to the thirsty human soul. Oh, that we had more brave educators who would be willing to put their reputations on the line for the things of God. I thirst for that!<\/p>\n

Ho! Everyone Who Is Thirsty<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Ho! Everyone that is thirsty in spirit,<\/em>
\nHo! Everyone that is weary and sad;<\/em>
\nCome to the fountain, there’s fullness in Jesus,<\/em>
\nAll that you’re longing for; come and be glad!<\/em><\/p>\n

Refrain:<\/strong>\u00a0I will pour water on him that is thirsty,
\nI will pour floods upon the dry ground;
\nOpen your hearts for the gifts I am bringing;
\nWhile you are seeking Me, I will be found.<\/em><\/p>\n

Child of the world, are you tired of your bondage?
\nWeary of earth’s joys, so false, so untrue?
\nThirsting for God and His fullness of blessing?
\nList’ to the promise, a message for you!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Refrain:<\/strong>\u00a0I will pour water on him that is thirsty,
\nI will pour floods upon the dry ground;
\nOpen your hearts for the gifts I am bringing;
\nWhile you are seeking Me, I will be found.<\/em><\/p>\n

Child of the kingdom, be filled with the Spirit!
\nNothing but “fullness” thy longing can meet;
\n‘Tis the enduement for life and for service;
\nThine is the promise, so certain, so sweet.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Refrain:<\/strong>\u00a0I will pour water on him that is thirsty,
\nI will pour floods upon the dry ground;
\nOpen your hearts for the gifts I am bringing;
\nWhile you are seeking Me, I will be found.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
