Have you heard the raindrops splashing in the streams and
running to the rivers all around?
Refrain:
There's water, water of life,
Jesus gives us the water of life;
there's water, water of life,
Jesus gives us the water of life.
2 There's a busy workman digging in the desert,
digging with a spade that flashes in the sun;
soon there will be water rising in the wellshaft,
spilling from the bucket as it comes. [Refrain]
3 Nobody can live who hasn't any water,
when the land is dry then nothing much grows;
Jesus gives us life if we drink the living water,
sing it so that everybody knows. [Refrain] Topics: Our Response to Christ In Discipleship; Children; Water Used With Tune: HAVE YOU HEARD THE RAINDROPS
There's water, water of life
