We sang this song in chapel last Friday. It has some themes in common with Ecclesiastes:- searching and finding (Eccl 1:13; 2:3; 7:25 ('searching'); 'finding' 12 times, e.g. Eccl 3:12 no one can find out the work of God)
- the world doesn't satisfy (Eccl 5:10 [heb 9], whoever loves wealth is never satisfied; Eccl 1:7-8, sea, words, eyes, ears never satisfied).
- emptiness ... this relates to the key word 'vanity' (hebel).
In this life we will find, We will be searching
In this life we will find, The world won’t satisfy
In this life we will find
That we will be empty, Without You
Jesus You’re the well that won’t run dry
Jesus You’re the drink that satisfies
Living water, Spring of life
Jesus You’re the well that won’t run dry
In this life we will find, We will be yearning
In this life we will find, The world won’t satisfy
In this life we will find
That we will be hopeless, Without You
We will thirst no more thirst no more
We will drink from you drink from you
We will search no more search no more
When we drink from you drink from you
