169. There is a Fountain

1 1 There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Emmanuel's veins,
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.

Refrain:
O Lord, have mercy,
O Lord, have mercy,
O Lord, have mercy,
Have mercy on me.

2 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day,
And there may I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away. [Refrain]

3 3 Thou dying Lamb, thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Are saved to sin no more. [Refrain]

4 4 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. [Refrain]
