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 redeem'd,
Sav'd and rescued by the Lord;
Hating what I once esteem'd,
Loving what I once abhorr'd.
What I hope to be ere long,
When I take my place above;
When I join the heav'nly throng;
When I see the God of love,--
Then I hope like Him to be,
Who redeem'd His saints from sin,
Whom I now obscurely see,
Through a veil that stands between.
