1 The Spirit and the Bride say, "Come
And take the water of life!"
O blessèd call! Good news to all
Who tire of sin and strife!
Refrain:
The Spirit says, "Come!"
The Bride says, "Come
And take of the water of life freely."
The Spirit says, "Come!"
The Bride says, "Come
And take of the water of life freely."
2 Let every one who hears say, "Come!"
And joyful witness give;
"I heard the sound, the stream I found,
I drank, and now I live." [Refrain]
3 Ye souls who are athirst, forsake
Your broken cisterns first;
Then come, partake; one draught will slake
Your soul’s consuming thirst. [Refrain]
4 Yea, whosoever will may come:
Your longings Christ can fill;
The stream is free to you and me,
And whosoever will. [Refrain]
