29. Glorious Fountain

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

Chorus:
Oh, glorious fountain!
Here will I stay,
And in thee ever
Wash my sins away.

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

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

4 E'er since by faith I saw the stream
I saw the stream I saw the stream
E'er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
has been my theme, has been my theme,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be till I die. [Chorus]
