69. We’ll Tarry By The Living Waters.
We’ll tarry by the living waters,
The fountain pure and free;
There Jesus waits to us welcome,
A welcome sweet ‘twill be.
*CHORUS
We’ll tarry by the living waters,
Tarry by the living waters.
Tarry by the living waters
Tarry by the fount of life.*
When weary with the toilsome journey,
‘Tis sweet to rest a while;
Where crystal waters gently murmur,
And sunny fountains smile.
Then come to Christ, the living water,
Thy strength will he restore;
Come, taste the joy of his salvation,
And drink to thirst no more.
