HYMN XXIV.
G. R. G. (George Richard Gould) Pughe translation
“With joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of Salvation.” Isa. xii. 3.
“Y mae dyfroedd iachawdwriaeth,”
Still salubrious as ever, Still to thirsting sinners free, Flow the waters of salvation Opened first on Calvary. Come, ye sons of fallen Adam, Wounded by the serpent’s sting, Come, and in these wondrous waters Find relief from suffering.
If, when ankle deep, such waters Prove of present potency, What will be the bliss of bathing In them everlastingly? Children of the Resurrection, What will be your ecstasy When arriving sat The Fountain Head That bled on Calvary?
