Cleansing Stream ~ (New Song #12)
Oh Cleansing Stream how fresh and free, That flows and flows from Calvary’s tree. My Savior then! My Shepherd now! Come rescue me—oh Purity’s Stream. Unto Yourself, oh take me… hide, Forever…
YOU DIDN'T CHOOSE ME! I CHOSE YOU…

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
—J.R.R. Tolkien
