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.
And found in Thee alone,
The peace, the joy I sought so long,
The bliss till now unknown.
Now none but Christ can satisfy,
None other name for me;
There's love and life and lasting joy,
Lord Jesus, found in Thee.
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.

I tried the broken cisterns, Lord,
But, ah, the waters failed!
E'en as I stooped to drink they fled,
And mocked me as I wailed.
But, ah, the waters failed!
E'en as I stooped to drink they fled,
And mocked me as I wailed.

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

Till grace the sightless eyes received,

Idols are broken cisterns! We need to turn 180 degrees and look upon into our Lord Saviour Jesus Christ, as our all-inclusive One, His dispensing into us as His vessels of mercy shall be for His increase, and will last for eternity....

Dear Lord Jesus, You are the only One who satisfies us!
A very nice arrangement on piano.
