Christ has come to be life

1
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!

This song is so wonderful...You are brought into the flowing Spirit...I love this hymn..

As this life flows through me, I’m supplied abundantly.

His life nullifies sin! Power springs now from within!

To be free, overcoming spontaneously.

I love this hymn! Recently the saints in Nueva York released a CD with the spanish version of this song:

Cristo vida vino a ser

Cristo vida vino a ser, la Trinidad procesada.

El Padre origen es, Fuente que brota para ser

Dios el Hijo como el manantial

En el Espíritu, un río que vida da

¡Cómo este milagro entender!

El Triuno Dios fluye en mi ser.

¡Oh! Ríos de vida están fluyendo desde mi interior.

Ríos de vida están fluyendo desde mi interior.

Esta vida al fluir

Se da en abundancia a mí

Al pecado da fin

Fluye poder de mí

Libre soy, espontáneamente vence en mí

Tal vida no sólo es para vencer y libertar

Dios tiene una intención, fluye para cumplir Su plan

Esta vida me incluye así en Su consumación, en Su totalidad

Al fluir crecimiento me da

Y me lleva a Su destinación

¡Oh! Ríos de vida están fluyendo desde mi interior.

Ríos de vida están fluyendo desde mi interior.

Y seremos con Dios

Una mútua habitación

Bebed del río pues,

Del árbol hoy comed,

Que serán estos nuestro disfrute eternal.

Triste no hay qué estar, recibí la vida zoé,

Triunfo inevitable, el rumbo de esta vida es

Sólo en el fluir debo permanecer,

Si bebo Dios mismo ocasiona el crecer

Gozo en mi corazón, alegría en mi andar

Y sonríe mi rostro al cantar.

¡Oh! Ríos de vida están fluyendo desde mi interior.

Ríos de vida están fluyendo desde mi interior.

Esta vida al fluir

Se da en abundancia a mí

Al pecado da fin

Fluye poder de mí

Libre soy, espontáneamente vence en mí

¡Oh! Ríos de vida están fluyendo desde mi interior.

Ríos de vida están fluyendo desde mi interior.

This song brings out your spirit so much! We always sing it at the SST! And everyone would stand up and jump for joy while singing! Ahh! It's just so enjoyable!

While I was at college, I would sing this song on the way to my classes almost every morning. By the time I entered the lecture room by 8am, I would be bouncing, with a broad smile on my face, ready to take on the day with the Triune God! Oh Lord Jesus!

I like this song because it really makes you turn deep within to your spirit where there is not only rest and uttermost satisfaction in Christ but rivers of life flowing us to New Jerusalem for eternity! Praise the Lord!

I'm required just to stay in the flow! If I do the drinking than God gives the growth! So there's joy in my heart, a spring in my step, and a smile on my face as I sing Oh! I've got rivers of Life, flowing ou of my innermost being! Praise the Lord! I sing this when I'm at my violin competitions. It is so comforting and uplifting!
