Representative Text

1 There flows a stream of crimson red,
Down from Mount Calvary;
For sinner’s guilt, this blood was spilt,
The stream that flows for me.

Refrain:
The stream that flows for me,
The stream that flows for me;
It cleanseth still, and always will,
The stream that flows for me.

2 This stream rolls on, all calm, sublime,
As pure as pure can be;
Within its waves, there’s pow’r that saves,
The stream that flows for me. [Refrain]

3 This stream will cleanse out nature’s dross,
‘Twill keep God’s people free;
I now can feel, its cleansing real,
The stream that flows for me. [Refrain]

4 Flow on, flow on, O stream divine,
Flow on eternally;
From Calv’ry’s brow it’s flowing now,
The stream that flows for me. [Refrain]
