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!

God willing I will live to see the Lords return and by His mercy I will remain in this rich enjoyment which has an eternal destination and marvelous consummation.

John 4:14b “The water that I will give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into eternal life”

This flowing Triune God is “into eternal life. ” The Greek preposition translated as “into” is rich in meaning. Here it speaks of destination. The eternal life is the destination of the flowing Triune God... This destination is the eternal life. The New Jerusalem is the totality of the divine, eternal life. The eternal life eventually will be the New Jerusalem. Thus, eternal life means into the New Jerusalem. (From The book, Crystallization-Study of The Gospel of John, MSG 14 “The Key to the Gospel of John).
