Representative Text

1 There is a living fountain,
‘Tis flowing full and free,
And all who drink its waters
Have life abundantly.

Refrain:
Life, life, life abundantly
From the fountain in the sky;
Life, life in channels full and free,
Ever flowing, never dry.

2 Our Saviour came from glory
To bring to you and me,
And all His true believers,
This life abundantly. [Refrain]

3 Ho, every one that thirsteth!
‘Tis mercy’s voice to thee,
To drink of living waters
Abundant, pure and free. [Refrain]

4 O Jesus, Fount eternal,
Accept the praise we give,
And seal to us Thy waters,
Unto eternal life. [Refrain]
