There is a pure and peaceful wave

Hymnal: The Book of Worship #325 (1867) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 There is a pure and peaceful wave, That rolls around the throne of love; Whose waters gladden as they lave The bright and heavenly shores above. 2 While streams, which on that tide depend, Steal from those heavenly shores away, And on this desert world descend, Over our barren land to stray,-- 3 The pilgrim, faint and near to sink Beneath his load of earthly woe, Refreshed in its gentle flow. 4 There, oh my soul, do thou repose, And hover o'er the hallowed spring, To drink the crystal wave, and there To lave thy wounded, weary wing. 5 It may be that the waft of love Some leaves on that pure tide hath driven, Which passing from the shores above, Have floated down to us from heaven. 6 So shall thy wants and woes be healed By the blest influence they bring; So thy parched lips shall be unsealed, Thy Saviour's worthy name to sing.

There Is a Pure and Tranquil Wave

Author: William Ball Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6759 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. There is a pure and tranquil wave, [or There is a pure and peaceful wave] That issues from the throne of grace; Whose waters gladden as they lave The bright and heav’nly dwelling place. 2. In living streams behold that tide, Thro’ Christ, the rock, profusely burst, And in His Word behold supplied, The fount for which our spirits thirst. 3. The pilgrim, faint, who seems to sink Beneath the sultry sky of time, May here repose and freely drink The waters of that better clime. 4. And every soul may here partake The blessings of the fount above; And none who drink will e’er forsake The crystal stream of boundless love. Languages: English Tune Title: LOUELLA
