1 Precious forever! oh, wonderful words,
Teach me the pathway of duty;
Lead me beside the still waters of life,
Flowing thro' valleys of beauty.

Refrain:
Precious forever to you and to me,
Words that our Savior has spoken,
Bearing salvation far over the sea,
Healing the hearts that are broken!

2 Freely He offers their promise to all,
"Come unto me whosoever;"
Sinners oppressed with a burden of woe,
Drink of the bountiful river.[Refrain]

3 Wouldst thou refuse the sweet solace He gives,
In the midnight of Thy sorrow?
Wouldst thou go on in the darkness of sin,
Longing for no bright tomorrow? [Refrain]
