O Christ, in Thee my soul hath found,
And found in Thee alone,
The peace, the joy I sought so long,
The bliss till now unknown.

Refrain

Now none but Christ can satisfy,
None other name for me!
There’s love, and life, and lasting joy,
Lord Je­sus, found in Thee.

I sighed for rest and happiness,
I yearned for them, not Thee;
But, while I passed my Sav­ior by,
His love laid hold on me.

Refrain

I tried the broken cisterns, Lord,
But, ah, the waters failed;
Even as I stooped to drink they fled,
And mocked me as I wailed.

Refrain

The pleasures lost I sadly mourned,
But ne­ver wept for Thee,
Till grace the sightless eyes received,
Thy loveliness to see.
