Oh, Jesus gave me water, Jesus [D] gave me [Am] water, Jesus gave me water.
I [C#] want to let his praise swell.
[Am] Jesus gave me water, Jesus gave me water, [C#] Jesus gave me water.
[A] And I was not in the well.
Well, there was a woman from Samaria, came to the [D] well to get some [A] water.
There she met a stranger [Bm] who did a story [A] tell.
That woman dropped a pitcher, [D] she drank and was [A] made richer.
From the water he [D] gave her, and I was not [A] in the well.
Oh, Jesus gave me water, [D] Jesus [A] gave me water, Jesus [Am] gave me water.
[Bm] I want to let his [A] praise swell.
Jesus gave water, [D] he gave that [A] woman water, gave living love and lasting water, and I was not in the well.
Well, on that woman he had pity, [D] she ran back [A] to the city, crying glory, hallelujah, [B] and did his [A] wonders tell.
She left my Savior singing, [D] she came back [A] to him bringing the town to see that water, Lord.
And I was not in the well.
Yes, he gave her water, [D] Jesus [A] gave her water, Jesus gave her water.
[B] I want to let his [A] praise swell.
Jesus gave that woman [D] water, gave her that [A] loving, lasting water, water.
And I was not in the well.
Well, on that woman left for shouting, [D] there was no room [A] for doubting.
That she had met her Savior, [B] who did her wonders [A] tell.
Every time she doubted him, she [D] started to think [A] about him.
The man that gave her that water, Lord, and I was not in the well.
Yes, he gave her water, [D] Jesus gave her water, Jesus gave her water.
I want to let his praise swell.
Say, he gave that woman water, gave her that loving, lasting water, water, water, water, water, loving water, and I was not in the well.
