LyicsBLESSED fountain, full of grace-
Grace for sinners, grace for me-
To this source alone I trace
What I am, and hope to be:
What I am, as one redeemed,
Saved and rescued by the Lord,
Hasting what I once esteemed,
Loving what I once abhorred;
What I hope to be ere long,
When I take my place above,
When I join the heavenly throng,
When I see the God of love.
Then I hope like him to be,
Who redeemed his saints from sin,
Whom I now obscurely see,
Through a vail that stands between.
