The water of life
Is a cleansing flood,
A pure stream that flows
From the throne of God—
Reservoir of love
Through our Lord’s shed blood,
Fountain-head of hope
For a parching world.
The water of life
Quenches deepest thirst;
There, the seeking soul
Is forever blessed,
Never more to parch
In a land near cursed—
From a new wellspring
Life-filled waters burst.
