Oh, drink of the river of pleasure,
A deep, living stream of delight;
The source of all blessings forever,
It flashes in heaven’s pure light.
Oh, drink of the river
of pleasure and love,
I feel it so deep in my soul;
It gladdens the one
who is born from above,
And maketh the
wounded heart whole.
Oh, drink of the river of pleasure,
’Tis sparkling with joy for thy soul;
It flows in the bosom forever,
That’s given to Father’s control.
Oh, drink of the river
of pleasure and love,
I feel it so deep in my soul;
It gladdens the one
who is born from above,
And maketh the
wounded heart whole.
Oh, drink of the river of pleasure,
For thee it is flowing along;
Down from the bounteous Giver,
Its music a sweet, charming song.
Oh, drink of the river
of pleasure and love,
I feel it so deep in my soul;
It gladdens the one
who is born from above,
And maketh the
wounded heart whole.
Oh, drink of the river of pleasure,
And surely thy spirit shall know
Thy longing and thirsting are over,
Thy blessings forever shall flow.
Oh, drink of the river
of pleasure and love,
I feel it so deep in my soul;
It gladdens the one
who is born from above,
And maketh the
wounded heart whole.
