1 As the hand moves over the harp, and the strings speak. (ODE) 2 So speaks in my members the Spirit of the Lord, and I speak by His love. (ODE) 3 For it destroys what is foreign, and everything that is bitter: (ODE) 4 For thus it was from the beginning and will be to the end, that nothing should be His adversary, and nothing should stand up against Him. (ODE) 5 The Lord has multiplied the knowledge of Himself, and is zealous that these things should be known, which by His grace have been given to us. (ODE) 6 And the praise of His name He gave us: our spirits praise His holy Spirit. (ODE) 7 For there went forth a stream and became a river great and broad; (ODE) 8 For it flooded and broke up everything and it brought (water) to the Temple: (ODE) 9 And the restrainers of the children of men were not able to restrain it, nor the arts of those whose business it is to restrain waters; (ODE) 10 For it spread over the face of the whole earth, and filled everything: and all the thirsty upon earth were given to drink of it; (ODE) 11 And thirst was relieved and quenched: for from the Most High the draught was given. (ODE) 12 Blessed then are the ministers of that draught who are entrusted with that water of His: (ODE) 13 They have assuaged the dry lips, and the will that had fainted they have raised up; (ODE) 14 And souls that were near departing they have caught back from death: (ODE) 15 And limbs that had fallen they straightened and set up: (ODE) 16 They gave strength for their feebleness and light to their eyes: (ODE) 17 For everyone knew them in the Lord, and they lived by the water of life for ever. Hallelujah. (ODE)
