 1 

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.

 

Now none but Christ can satisfy,

   None other name for me;

There's love and life and lasting joy,

   Lord Jesus, found in Thee.

 

 2 

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.

 

Now none but Christ can satisfy,

   None other name for me;

There's love and life and lasting joy,

   Lord Jesus, found in Thee.

 

 3 

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.

 

Now none but Christ can satisfy,

   None other name for me;

There's love and life and lasting joy,

   Lord Jesus, found in Thee.

 

 4 

The pleasures lost I sadly mourned,

   But never wept for Thee,

Till grace the sightless eyes received,

   Thy loveliness to see.

 

Now none but Christ can satisfy,

   None other name for me;

There's love and life and lasting joy,

   Lord Jesus, found in Thee.
