The river of the water of life, crystal clear,
From the throne of God and of the Lamb,
E’re flows through the street of the city of God
Our home in New Jerusalem-
To never be thirsty again, drink until
Thirsts are quenched and you'll never run dry
Come drink of this river of life, take your fill
As you drink God you will glorify
Come drink of the water-The pure living water
That flows out from God’s holy throne
Come all you thirsty, yes come deeply drink
Of a water like you’ve never known
The wells of salvation are fed by its flow
To refresh and the dead to revive
Oh, drink of the river of life and you’ll know
What it means to be truly alive
Abandon the cisterns that cannot hold water
That you have dug by your own hand
For crystal clear water reflecting God’s glory
To flood over your dry weary land
Oh, this dazzling, never-ending stream
Eternally flows to sustain
It will flood from inside you like you never dreamed
Like the latter and the former rains
The river of the water of life ever flows
In it’s coursing it never shall end
It runs and it ravages as it grows
And the walls you have built it shall rend
It will cleanse your heart and it will purify
The desires that would destroy your soul
So plunge into the waters where you’ll never die-
In the waters our God’s in control
The river of the water of life, like clear crystal,
From the throne of God and of the Lamb,
E’re flows through the street of the city of God
Our home in New Jerusalem
To never be thirsty again, drink until
Thirsts are quenched and you’ll never run dry
Come drink of this river of life, take your fill
As you drink God you will glorify!
