Drink! A river pure and clear that's flowing

|
| 1. | Drink! A river pure and clear that's flowing |
| | from the Throne; |
| | Eat! The tree of Life with fruits abundant, |
| | richly grown; |
| | Look! No need of lamp nor sun nor moon to |
| | keep it bright for |
| | Here there is no night! |
| | Do come, oh, do come, |
| | Says Spirit and the Bride: |
| | Do come, oh, do come, |
| | Let him that heareth cry. |
| | Do come, oh, do come, |
| | Let him who thirsts and will |
| | Take freely the water of Life! |
| 2. | Christ, our river, Christ, our water, springing |
| | from within; |
| | Christ, our tree, and Christ, the fruits, |
| | to be enjoyed therein, |
| | Christ, our day, and Christ, our light, and |
| | Christ, our morning star: |
| | Christ our everything! |
| 3. | We are washing all our robes the tree of life |
| | to eat; |
| | "O Lord, Amen, Hallelujah!"-Jesus is so |
| | sweet! |
| | We our spirits exercise, and thus experience |
| | Christ. |
| | What a Christ have we! |
| 4. | Now we have a home so bright that out |
| | shines the sun, |
| | Where the brothers all unite and truly are |
| | one. |
| | Jesus gets us all together, Him we now |
| | display |
| | In the local church. |
