1 

Under the burdens of guilt and care,

   Many a spirit is grieving,

Who in the joy of the Lord might share,

   Life everlasting receiving.

 2 

Burdened one, why will you longer bear

   Sorrows from which He releases?

Open your heart, and rejoicing, share

   Life more abundant in Jesus.

 3 

Leaving the mountain, the streamlet grows,

   Flooding the vale with a river;

So, from the hill of the Cross, there flows

   Life more abundant forever.

 4 

Oh, for the flood on the thirsty land!

   Oh, for a mighty revival!

Oh, for a sanctified, fearless band,

   Ready to hail its arrival!
