Crowning Day No. 3 ‎#38

38. Go, Wash in the Stream

1 I’ll sing of the stream, of that beautiful stream,
That flows thro’ the sweet Canaan Land;
Its waters gleam bright in their heavenly light,
And ripple o’er bright golden sand.

Refrain:
Go, wash in that beautiful stream,
Go, wash in that beautiful stream,
Its waters so free, and flowing for thee;
Go, wash in that beautiful stream.

2 I’ll sing of the stream, of that beautiful stream,
Which gladdens the city of God;
It flows from the throne of the Father alone,
And spreads its sweet waters abroad. [Refrain]

3 I’ll sing of the stream, of that beautiful stream,
That fount God has open’d for sin;
That stream from His side who for sinners once died;
He’s healed, who but plunges therein. [Refrain]

4 I’ll sing of the stream, of that beautiful stream,
That fount that is flowing so free;
I’ll sing of that flood, which is crimsoned with blood,
From sin, that has cleansed ever me. [Refrain]
