Unstopped, the flow from Jesus’ side

lyricist: Anonymous
Composer: Richard Storrs Willis

Unstopped

the flow from Jesus’ side

Whose arms outstretched I see!

On Calvary’s tree

what sacrifice!

He gave His all for me!

Unbarred

my heart

its doors swung wide

Responds with joy complete

Surrendered

unreservedly

Spontaneous jubilee.

Agape love then bids me be

No more for my own gain;

For He who loved and rescued me

Has won my life through pain.

Can one who’s loved not give his all?

Divine love paid the cost.

A life that daily dies

then lives

Will ne’er be counted loss.

To know the riches of His grace

Old self I gladly yield;

Emotion

mind

and will I place

Within His hands

unsealed.

A life surrendered wholly

grows

His image thus to shine;

I sense His will and turn aside

From what is not divine.

Through consecration’s narrow gate

I walk and yield each choice;

In daily steps

both small and great

I hear my spirit’s voice.

Each time His will defeats my own

A step ahead is won—

Each vict’ry o’er my self-bound soul

Leads ever to the Son.
