When Jesus died on the Cross for us, the blood that was shed from His side poured out like a flood and became for us the stream of living water that covers us and washes away our sin so that we are seen in God's eyes to be whiter than snow.  I am constantly amazed at the wonder of this act of pure love that Jesus made for me, for I certainly don't deserve it, and never will.

SPRINGS OF LIVING WATER

There are springs of living water
Flowing from above
That will refresh your heart and purify your soul
For the source of that pure water
Is God's overwhelming love,
And it is flowing now to touch and make you whole.

 

As you drink this living water,
The love of God will fill your heart,
And you'll know the peace that only God can give.
It's a fountain flowing freely
For those He's set apart,
To revive your souls and teach you how to live.

 

This stream of living water
Is the blood of God's own Son,
Which was shed for you to wash away your sin.
When that river flowed so freely,
God's perfect will was done,
And the gates of heaven flew open – so please come in.

 

Please come into the throne room –
You'll find Him waiting there,
To wipe away your fears and give you peace,
And as You come into His presence,
you'll find joy beyond compare,
And the rivers of His love will never cease.
