Tune: Darwalls 148th
('Join all the glorious names'
= 'Ye holy angels bright')
Revelation 22 v.1-5
********
John, pure river of life
Water of life, no strife
Did see, clear as crystal
Proceeding, flowing all
From throne of God, and the Lamb too
Supply enough to all renew
New Jerusalem's street
The sight their did him greet
And upon river's sides
The Lord there so provides
The tree of life, with fruit twelve kinds
Each month it is what one there finds
The leaves of the tree, they
For healing in their day
Healing of the nations
For folk of all stations
There no more curse, but God's throne there
And of the Lamb, His people share
His servants shall Him serve
And He shall them preserve
And they shall see His face
Eternal, by His grace
His name shall on their foreheads be
A symbol of ownership, see
And there be no night there
No lamp, nor no sun fair
For the Lord God He gives
Them light and each one lives
In His light, and they shall reign e'er
No end, as they God's presence share
