Christ has come to be life

Christ has come to be life, the processed divine Trinity.
God the Father's the source, a fountain emerging to be.
God the Son as a gushing up spring,
And the Spirit's a river for life imparting
Oh how can this miracle be? The Triune God flowing in me!
Oh, I've got rivers of life flowing out of my innermost being!
I've got rivers of life flowing out of my innermost being!
 
As this life flows through me, I'm supplied abundantly.
His life nullifies sin! Power springs now from within!
To be free, overcoming spontaneously.
2
Yet this life though it frees, is not meant for mere victory.
God is full of intent and never could flow aimlessly.
So this life has a totality, a consummate issue encompassing me.
Life moves and life grows, life shapes as it flows
Now I share in this life's destiny.
Oh, I've got rivers of life flowing out of my innermost being!
I've got rivers of life flowing out of my innermost being!
 
We'll abide mutually, God and man revealed to be
Lamb, Wife, Spirit, and Bride.
Come! Drink! And riverside,
Grows the tree, our enjoyment for eternity!
3
So I've no cause to frown as one who's received this zoe.
I know life runs its course and triumphs inevitably.
I'm required just to stay in the flow,
If I do the drinking then God gives the growth.
So there's joy in my heart, and a spring in my step,
And a smile on my face as I sing,
Oh, I've got rivers of life flowing out of my innermost being!
I've got rivers of life flowing out of my innermost being!

On 06/21/2024 we sang this song in a college meeting (with Richmond, Va. students visiting). While singing, the picture of the New Jerusalem came to my thinking. I realized each of us believers are a little New Jerusalem because the Life and Person of God has been born into us. We have the Triune God with the throne and the water of life flowing in us, gushing up in us, supplying our being!

Thus, every day this wonderful Triune God is in us and can gush-up at any time to supply us.

Oh! What a blessing, Im so encouraged with this "I’m required just to stay in the flow,

If I do the drinking then God gives the growth. O'Lord cause us to stay in the flow and not deviate from this truth.

God's life is in us. He wants to glow out of us to others! His life is for you, too.

This song can easily pull me out of any BLAU state! I just have to start singing the first part and I'm usually smiling by

"Oh, how can this miracle be? the Triune God flowing in me!"
