Tune: Christchurch
('Now is eternal life')
*******
A song of praise to sing
Unto my Lord and King
Spirit, flow free from me
May worship worthy be
Of Him who died and rose again
he the Lord, Saviour for all men
A tune for all seasons
Praise Him, whate'er reasons
Through night, day, dark, and light
It pleasing in His sight
He is glorified with no pride
And within our hearts does reside
The flow a a river
May meet with lock and weir
Yet current still goes on
Life be in Christ the Son
He Lord of heaven and earth for e'er
In His providings do we share
Come to me, where I dull
Or heavy in my soul
Lighten the way ahead
You give us daily bread
Spirit, flow to eternity
'Til day of Rapture sure shall be
Water of life, sparkling
And mankind's thirst quenching
Assisted by your grace
We each thing here do face
Matters difficult or easy
Come to us, our Comforter be

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 666688 metre. We have some Christchurch Meadows (tune name) just outside town. I thought of this tune with the 'flowing' and 'river' theme.
