Through my sinful nature let the waters
Of Christ flow and cleanse me of all the
Things that are impure, for sin must go
Let the waters rage across my thoughts
Like rocks out at sea, and purify
All that is within me
Let the waters flow that soothe the most
Restless heart, and calm the greatest need,
And then may there be planted within
A new and healthier seed
A seed that can go to God each new and
Glorious day, feeding upon all the things
Which are spiritually nutritious; like
When one goes to God to pray
Let his living waters flow
And cleanse you from within
Ridding your heart from every sin!
