My soul today is thirsting
for living streams divine,
To sweep from highest heaven
to this poor heart of mine;
I stand upon the promise,
in Jesus� name I plead;
O send the gracious current
to satisfy my need.
Like a mighty sea, like a mighty sea,
Comes the love of Jesus
sweeping over me;
The waves of glory roll,
the shouts I can�t control;
Comes the love Jesus sweeping
o�er my soul.
I see the clouds arising,
the mercy clouds of love,
That come to bring refreshing
down from the throne above,
The earnest of the shower,
just now to us is giv�n,
And now we wait, expecting
the floods of grace from Heav�n.
Like a mighty sea, like a mighty sea,
Comes the love of Jesus
sweeping over me;
The waves of glory roll,
the shouts I can�t control;
Comes the love Jesus sweeping
o�er my soul.
The show�rs of grace are falling,
the tide is rolling in,
The floodtide of salvation,
with power to cleanse from sin;
It�s surging through my being
and takes my sin away,
It keeps me shouting glory!
through all the happy day.
Like a mighty sea, like a mighty sea,
Comes the love of Jesus
sweeping over me;
The waves of glory roll,
the shouts I can�t control;
Comes the love Jesus sweeping
o�er my soul.
It�s coming, yes, it�s coming,
it�s coming down this hour,
A torrent of salvation
in saving, cleansing power:
I hear the billows surging,
I see them mount and roll;
O glory, hallelujah!
they�re sweeping through my soul.
Like a mighty sea, like a mighty sea,
Comes the love of Jesus
sweeping over me;
The waves of glory roll,
the shouts I can�t control;
Comes the love Jesus sweeping
o�er my soul.
