Oasis Vernessa Mitchell

While on a journey, journey with the Savior
I took the notion to turn and walk another way
Forgetting to watch and pray
The grass was greener, greener I imagined
And so, I wandered out across the sands of time
Far from my Savior's side
Then I grew thirsty in the desert sun
For living water, I discovered none
Then I cried out to the Holy one
And there He was

My oasis, my stream in the desert
Oasis, my well in a thirsty land
At the point of desperation
He became my destination
Oasis
My oasis, my haven for resting
Oasis, and I'll never thirst again
My source of restoration
My water in dry places
Oasis
Oasis

Safe in the shelter, shelter of His presence
I rest assured in knowing there's no other way
Than walking close to You day by day
Now I will follow, follow where He leads me
Out of the desert, all the way to paradise
I'm gonna follow Him day and night
And even when I leave the narrow way
And nearly perish in the heat of the day
He'll run to meet me when I call His name
And He'll forgive me, whoo!
