Da jubelt und jauchzet das Herz,
Das nunmehr den köstlichsten Segen geniesst,
Erlöset von Sorgen und Schmerz. [Chor]

Es schmecket so lieblich und fein;
Es heilet die Kranken und stärkt wunderbar,
Ja machet die Unreinsten rein. [Chor]

So rufet der Geist und die Braut,
Nur wer in dem Strome gewaschen sich hat,
Das Angesicht Gottes einst schaut. [Chor] Languages: German Tune Title: [Ich weiss einen Strom, dessen herrliche Flut]
