LyicsTHERE is a fountain fill'd with blood,
Pour'd from Immanuel's veins;
And sinners plung'd beneath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains.
The dying thief rejoic'd to see
That fountain in his day;
And there have I, though vile as he,
Wash'd all my sins away.
O Lamb of God! thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power,
Till all the ransom'd sons of God
Be sav'd-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 lisping, stamm'ring tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
I'll sing thy power to save.
