460   As Water to the Thirsty




[1]
As water to the thirsty As beauty to the eyes
As strength that follows weakness
As truth instead of lies;
As songtime and springtime and summertime to be
So is my Lord my living Lord
So is my Lord to me.

[2]
Like calm in place of clamor
Like peace that follows pain
Like meeting after parting
Like sunshine after rain;
Like moonlight and starlight and sunlight on the sea
So is my Lord my living Lord
So is my Lord to me.

[3]
As sleep that follows fever
As gold instead of grey
As freedom after bondage
As sunrise to the day;
As home to the trav ler and all he longs to see
So is my Lord my Living Lord
So is my Lord to me.
