Consecration Hymn: A Vessel Filled with Living Water (1)

Three images: a picture of a bell; a man carrying two buckets of water; and a man fighting off a wolf to protect sheep

English Translation

Top right: Hymn Number 182, Verse One
Lord [if] you bestow living water I would be the jar
Fill the jar with water that is clear and pure to the bottom
Within it the well head gushes out to eternity
Just as rivers support men with waves of favor that flows widely

Chorus I want to dedicate my body, I want to dedicate my body
Because the Blood of Christ I received gives my soul salvation
I want to dedicate my heart, I want to dedicate my heart
Because the favor I received is filled with Lord’s Holy Spirit

Bottom right: Verse Two
I should put myself in the hands of Lord to be his utensil
I want to dedicate my body, I want to dedicate my heart
I should put myself in the hands of Lord
To be used and cherished as Lord’s utensil
Chapter Two Lord [if] you warn people I would be the golden bell
Hanging on top of a tall building, making sounds of a whale morning and night
When hit, I will make a sound so loud it will let everyone hear
Drunkards and those awake, can all hear it

Chorus ibid.

Middle left : Verse Three
Lord [if] you eradicate the threats of wolves I would be the knife and sword
Grind and wash the rust to clean the flying blades to make them shine
Cut iron like cutting mud, jackals and wolves are all annihilated
Held by Lord’s command to protect your flock of sheep

Chorus Ibid
