42. Beautiful Stream

1 Oh, have you not heard of a beautiful stream,
That flows thro’ our Father’s land?
It's waters gleam bright in the heavenly light,
And ripple o’er golden sand.

Refrain:
O, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful stream!
River of pleasures divine!
Its waters gleam bright in the heavenly light,
O, beautiful, beautiful stream.

2 This beautiful stream is the river of life,
It flows for all nations free;
A balm for each wound in its waters is found,
O sinner, it flows for thee. [Refrain]

3 Oh, will you not drink of the beautiful stream,
And dwell on its peaceful shore?
The Spirit says, come, all ye weary ones, home,
And wander in sin no more. [Refrain]
