0. There is a River

1 There came a sound from heaven,
As a rushing mighty wind,
It filled their heart with singing,
And gave them peace within.
The prophet gave this promise
The spirit will descend,
And from your inner being
A river with no end.

1st refrain:
There is a river that flows from deep within
There is a fountain that keeps the soul from sin
Come to this water, there is a vast supply
There is a river that never shall run dry.

2 There was a thirsty woman
Was drawing from the well,
Her life was ruined and wasted,
Her soul was bound for hell.
Then she met the Master,
Who told of her great sin,
And if you'll drink this water,
You'll never thirst again.

2nd refrain:
There is a river that flows from God above
There is a fountain that's filled with his great love
Come to this water there is a vast supply
There is a river that never shall run dry.
