Lately I've been thinking
This feels more like lost than found
The sand around me is sinking
Thought I stood on solid ground
And what I have put my hope in
Seems to have let me down
When all my dreams escape me
Without a sound

WHEN EVERYTHING IS BROKEN
AND EVERYTHING IS GONE
WHEN THERE'S NOTHING LEFT
TO HOLD ON, HOLD ON TO
YOU GIVE ME SOMETHING BETTER
MORE THAN JUST A FEELING
YOU GIVE ME SOMETHING REAL
TO HOLD ON, HOLD ON TO

I keep lifting empty buckets
Out from empty wells
Expecting something different
In the midst of this dry spell
But I know there's more to put my hope in
It will never let me down
And I know there's living water
To be found
