Lyics

There is a stream whose gentle flow

Supplies the city of our God;

Life, love, and joy still gliding through,

And watering our divine abode.



That sacred stream, thy holy word,

Supports our faith, our fear controls;

Sweet peace they promises afford,

And give new strength to fainting souls.
