Cleansing Fountain
Lyrics
There is a fountain filled with blood, Drawn from Immanuel’s veins; And sinners plung’d beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains. The dying thief rejoiced to see, That fountain in his day; O may I there, tho’ vile as he Wash all my sins away. Thou dying Lamb, Thy precious blood Shall never lose its pow’r, ’Till all the ransomed church of God Are saved to sin no more. E’er since by faith I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme And shall be ’till I die And when this feeble, falt’ring tongue Lies silent in the grave, Then in a nobler, sweeter song, I’ll sing His pow’r to save.
