Where Springs Abide Forever

Representative Text

1 O, come, dear child­ren, let us go
Where spring ab­ides for­ev­er,
Where bal­my breez­es ev­er blow,
Where peace and joy un­ceas­ing flow.
And spring ab­ides for­ev­er,
Where flows the beau­ti­ful riv­er,
There peace and joy un­ceas­ing flow,
And spring ab­ides for­ev­er.

2 Come, let us seek that bet­ter land,
Where spring ab­ides for­ev­er,
Where Christ will meet us on the strand,
Where friends will take us by the hand.
And spring ab­ides for­ev­er.
Where flows the beau­ti­ful riv­er,
Where friends will take us by the hand,
And spring ab­ides for­ev­er.

3 We’ll go to Christ with­out de­lay,
Where spring ab­ides for­ev­er,
Nor long­er from our Fa­ther stray,
For bless­èd Je­sus leads the way.
To joy and bliss for­ev­er,
Where flows the beau­ti­ful riv­er,
For bless­èd Jesus leads the way,
To joy and bliss for­ev­er.
