Verse 1
Pulsing Spirit, rippling river, source of mercy’s tender might.
Gentle power, humble glory,
subtle, ever dancing light.Healing Wisdom in us flowing,
now reveal our human worth.
Play beneath the muddied waters,
come renew the face of earth!
Verse 2
Spirit free, unbounded motion,
beauty’s mirror, heart’s delight.
Gift abundant all around us,
flood the world with life and light.
Fountain ancient, ever springing,
play in new, creative ways.
Lift us, stream of lavish loving,
high on waves of joyful praise!
