Thanks for the Village Hymns info. http://books.google.com/books?id=Gh03AAAAMAAJ&pg=PA68#v=onepage&q&f=false HYMN 80. C. M. Newmark. Barby. 1 At Jacob's well a stranger sought His drooping frame to cheer : Samaria's daughter little thought That Jacob's God was near. 2 This had she known, her fainting mind For richer draughts had sigh'd ; Nor had Messiah, ever kind. Those richer draughts deny'd. 3 The man, who came on earth to die, How few appear to know ! The friend of sinners, passing by, Is still esteem'd a foe. 4 The sinner must the stranger know, Or soon his loss deplore ; Behold ! the living waters flow ; Come— drink, and thirst no more. Knaresborough (? in a more original, less fuguing form than the Union Tune Book version) is number 45 in the 1823 Bridgewater Collection of Sacred Music at http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=L-gaAAAAYAAJ&dq=Collection%20Sacred%20Music&pg=PA45#v=onepage&q&f=false
