Author: Richard Torrey, Jr. Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8314 First Line: O have you not heard of that beautiful stream Refrain First Line: O seek that beautiful stream Lyrics: 1 O have you not heard of that beautiful stream That flows through our Father’s land? Its waters gleam bright in the heavenly light, And ripple o’er golden sand. Refrain: O seek that beautiful stream, O seek that beautiful stream; Its waters, so free, are flowing for thee, O seek that beautiful stream. 2 Its fountains are deep and its waters are pure; And sweet to the weary soul; It flows from the throne of Jehovah alone! O come where its bright waves roll. [Refrain] 3 This beautiful stream is the river of life! It flows for all nations free! A balm for each wound in its water is found; O sinner, it flows for thee!
