Lyrics
Verse
My soul is thirsty for another drink
You’re the source of living water
You invite me to come taste and see
From a fountain like no other
Chorus
I’m gonna drink
Drink from the well
That never runs dry
You never run dry, my Lord
Jesus the spring
Flooding my soul
And I still want more
You never run dry my Lord
Verse
Lord Your presence is my portion
So I will seek You in the morning
From my heart there flows a river
You fill my cup, it’s running over
I’m gonna drink
Drink from the well
That never runs dry
You never run dry, my Lord
Jesus the spring
Flooding my soul
And I still want more
You never run dry my Lord
Bridge
I’m gonna drink from the fountain of life
Only You satisfy
One cup and I come alive
I come alive when I
Drink from the fountain of life
Only You satisfy
One cup and I come alive
I come alive
I’m gonna drink
Drink from the well
That never runs dry
You never run dry, my Lord
Jesus the spring
Flooding my soul
And I still want more
You never run dry my Lord
I’m gonna drink
Drink from the well
That never runs dry
You never run dry, my Lord
Jesus the spring
Flooding my soul
And I still want more
You never run dry my Lord

Meaning & Inspiration
Never Run Dry uses the language of thirst and living water to describe continuing dependence on Jesus. The singer identifies Christ as the source who satisfies the soul, yet the repeated desire for more shows that spiritual fullness leads to renewed seeking rather than indifference. Morning prayer, the presence of God as a portion, and an overflowing cup all portray worship as daily reception from a supply that does not fail.
The chorus and bridge closely echo the invitation of Jesus to drink living water. Their fountain, spring, river, and well imagery may also recall the biblical connection between living water and the Holy Spirit. The declaration that one cup brings life presents Christ as the giver of spiritual renewal, while the repeated refrain keeps the focus on divine sufficiency. Satisfaction and holy desire stand together: Jesus alone satisfies, and that satisfaction awakens an ongoing longing for his presence.
