LyicsCome to Calvary's holy mountain,
Sinners, ruined by the fall!
Here a pure and healing fountain
Flows, to cleanse the guilty soul;
In a full, perpetual tide--
Opened when the Savior died.
Come in sorrow and contrition,
Wounded, impotent, and blind;
Here the guilty find remission--
Here the lost a refuge find:
Health this fountain will restore;
He that drinks shall thirst no more.
Come, ye dying, live forever;
'T is a soul-reviving flood;
God is faithful--he will never
Break the cov'nant sealed in blood:
Signed when our Redeemer died;
Sealed when he was crucified.
