Lyics

JESUS' precious name excels

Jordan's streams and Salem's wells;

Thirsty souls come taste the spring,

Life and joy its waters bring.



Lo, the Spirit now invites,

Lo, his Bride the church unites;

Faith receives a full supply:

Those who drink it, cannot die.



See the living waters flow,

Where the weak and wretched go;

Fill your vessel as it rolls;

Here refresh your weary souls.
