Water Pure Water

F. E. Belden • English

Primary Scripture: Matthew 5:45

Verse 1

Water, pure water, that sparkles so bright, Beautiful, fresh and free! Falling from heaven like jewels of light, Falling for you and me; Fresh from the bountiful Giver of all, Nothing so pure can be; This is the song of the showers that fall Over the lake and lea:

Chorus

Drink water, pure water, Drink water, pure water, Drink, drink, drink, Drink, drink, drink, drink, Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, Drink pure water.

Verse 2

Water, pure water, for young and for old, Poured by the hand divine; Give me pure water so healthful and cold, Fill up this cup of mine; Sweet is the breath of the blossoming spring, Kissed by the silver rain; Gay is the song that the little birds sing Over the hill and plain:

Chorus

Drink water, pure water, Drink water, pure water, Drink, drink, drink, Drink, drink, drink, drink, Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, Drink pure water.

Verse 3

Water, pure water, yes this is the song, This is the theme for you; This is the drink for the youthful and strong, Pure as the morning dew. This is the gift from our Father's own hand, In every land 'tis found; This is the song of the temperance band Echoed the world around:

Chorus

Drink water, pure water, Drink water, pure water, Drink, drink, drink, Drink, drink, drink, drink, Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, Drink pure water.
