The River of God
Coming, full of water
To soften and water
Bringing song in the morning
And dance in the evening
Coming to Visits the earth
The River of God
teeming with richness
abundant in goodness
waiting in the wings
it rings and springs
from the throne of Grace
The River of God
never runs dry
beyond the sky
a living water
more than a shower
coming to marvel
The River of God
For levelling lumpy ground
Coming with abundance sound
Preparing the soil
With a fresh oil
Much food, much grain to come.
The River of God
River Euphrates for fruitfulness
To end all barrenness
The Hill-dresser, New wine presser
Mountain-maker and tamer
Calling one, calling all, to worship.
The River of God
Gihon, bursting forth
Bulldozing everything in its path
Flowing rapid yet sweet
Covering every nook, cranny and street
Abounding and penetrating.
