Come to the foun­tain of mer­cy and live,
Come, and a par­don re­ceive;
Drink of the wa­ter that Je­sus will give,
Freely to those that be­lieve;
Weary and bur­dened with sor­row,
Sweet is the mes­sage to thee,
Learn of the meek and the low­ly,
Come, hea­vy la­den to Me.

Refrain

Come to the clear flow­ing ri­ver,
Drink of its wa­ters for­ev­er,
Hungry and thirs­ty, O! ne­ver,
Blessèd are they that be­lieve!

Happy the na­tion whose God is the Lord;
Hearing in meek­ness and love
Counsels of wis­dom and truth in His Word,
Looking for com­fort above;
He is their rock and sal­va­tion,
He is their strength and their song,
Onward from glo­ry to glo­ry,
Leading them gent­ly along.

Refrain

Look un­to Je­sus, ye re­gions of earth,
Victor of death and the grave,
Though He was hum­ble, and low­ly His birth
He is the migh­ty to save.
Why should we wan­der in dark­ness?
Why to the world should we cling?
Hope, like a bird, is be­fore us,
Pluming her beau­ti­ful wing.

Refrain
