[Verse 1]
Thirty eight years on the same cold stone,
Watching people race while I lay alone.
Every little ripple, I’d brace to run,
But my legs quit out before I’d begun.
“No one to carry me” turned into my line,
Till He walked in and His eyes met mine.
[Pre-Chorus]
Crowd all around, but He saw me still,
Looked through my pain, straight into my will.
[Chorus]
He said, “Do you want to be healed?
Do you want to be free?”
I was waiting on the water
Till the Living Water came to me.
He said, “Do you want to be healed?
Do you want to be whole?”
One word from His mouth
And the chains let go,
Do you want to be healed?
[Verse 2]
I said, “Sir, there’s no one here for me,
When the waters move, they all outrun my need.
I keep losing races I can barely start,
Left behind so long it feels like my part.”
I talked about the pool and the ones who win,
He was aiming past my words at the weight within.
[Pre-Chorus]
He didn’t blame me, didn’t count the years,
Just fired one question through all my fears.
[Chorus]
He said, “Do you want to be healed?
Do you want to be free?”
I was waiting on the water
Till the Living Water came to me.
He said, “Do you want to be healed?
Do you want to be whole?”
One word from His mouth
And the chains let go,
Do you want to be healed?
[Verse 3]
Power hit my ankles, fire in my knees,
I rolled up my mat and walked out free.
They said, “It’s Sabbath, you can’t carry that.”
I said, “The One who healed me told me, ‘Take your mat.’”
Later in the temple, He found me again,
“You’re whole now, turn your back on sin.”
[Bridge]
We all have a pool with a different name,
Waiting on water or someone to blame.
But He steps right into our crowded pain,
Says, “Let Me heal you, you don’t have to stay the same.”
[Chorus – final]
He says, “Do you want to be healed?
Do you want to be free?”
Stop waiting on the water,
Let the Living Water come to thee.
He says, “Do you want to be healed?
Do you want to be whole?”
One word from His mouth
And the chains let go,
Do you want to be healed? Do you want to be healed?
