When The Well Runs Dry

Oh God, be our hope in the middle
Of the drought and the flood
Grant us not wealth, not too little
So we remember You're in our blood

Teach us to plant in the sorrow
And trust the rain will come
Teach us to lie down in peace
And to rest when the day is done

Oh, we only miss the water when the well runs dry
We can only count the stars in the cloudless sky
Oh darling, won't you put your hand in mine?
There's a time for water and a time for wine

Oh God, be our strength in the desert
Be our joy, our daily bread
Sit by the fire and tell stories
Of the days that are ahead

Teach us to walk in the mystery
For to wander is to know
The path of the root to find water
Oh, to wonder is to grow

Oh, we only miss the water when the well runs dry
We can only count the stars in the cloudless sky
Oh darling, won't you put your hand in mine
There's a time for water and a time for wine
