As the hand moves over the harp, and the strings speak.

So speaks in my members the Spirit of the Lord, and I speak by His love.

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.

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.

And the praise of His name He gave us: our spirits praise His holy Spirit.

For there went forth a stream and became a river great and broad;

For it flooded and broke up everything and it brought (water) to the Temple:

For it flooded and broke up everything and it brought (water) to the Temple:

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;

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;

They have assuaged the dry lips, and the will that had fainted they have raised up;

And souls that were near departing they have caught back from death:

And limbs that had fallen they straightened and set up:

For everyone knew them in the Lord, and they lived by the water of life for ever. Hallelujah.

Wherefore He pitied me in His abundant grace: and granted me to ask from Him and to receive from His sacrifice:

Wherefore He pitied me in His abundant grace: and granted me to ask from Him and to receive from His sacrifice:

Because He it is that is incorrupt, the fulness of the ages and the Father of them.

He hath given Him to be seen of them that are His, in order that they may recognize Him that made them: and that they might not suppose that they came of themselves:

For knowledge He hath appointed as its way, He hath widened it and extended it; and brought to all perfection;

For knowledge He hath appointed as its way, He hath widened it and extended it; and brought to all perfection;

And set over it the traces of His light, and I walked therein from the beginning even to the end.

Ask, and abound and abide in the love of the Lord,

Ask, and abound and abide in the love of the Lord,

And yet beloved ones in the Beloved: those who are kept, in Him that liveth:

And they that are saved in Him that was saved;

And ye shall be found incorrupt in all ages to the name of your Father. Hallelujah.
