1. Rest to the weary soul
And aching breast is giv’n,
Down where the living waters flow;
Grace makes the wounded whole,
Love fills our hearts with Heav’n,
Down where the living waters flow.
Refrain
Down where the living waters flow,
Down where the tree of life doth grow,
I’m living in the light, for Jesus now I fight,
Down where the living waters flow.
2. For thee, my soul, for thee,
These priceless joys were bought,
Down where the living waters flow;
Thine is the mercy free,
That Christ to earth has brought,
Down where the living waters flow.
Refrain
3. Come, with the ransomed train,
The Savior’s praises sing,
Down where the living waters flow;
Rejoice! the Lamb was slain,
Adore! He reigns a king,
Down where the living waters flow.
Refrain
