The Fountain of Life
Author: Wm. A. Burch Hymnal: The Golden Sheaf #181 (1902) First Line: Jesus is the only fountain Refrain First Line: Of eternal life Christ is the giver Lyrics: 1 Jesus is the only fountain
Of the life that cannot end;
You must perish!--cease forever!
If you make not him your friend.
Refrain:
Of eternal life Christ is the giver,
Sound out these tidings to earth's farthest shore;
"Length of days for ever and ever,"
"Equal to the angels," to die no more!
2 As a father children pities,
So does God in whom we trust;
For he knows our frame's frail tenure,
And remembers we are dust. [Refrain]
3 "Swifter than a weaver's shuttle,"
Pass thy days in rapid flight;
Hast thou faced the solemn question,
"Have I hope beyond death's night?" [Refrain]
4 Soon thy days will all be numbered,
Haste to seek the life beyond!
Endless as th' eternal ages,
To God's message now respond! [Refrain]
5 See the vapor, quickly passing,
Or the dew, at early morn!
These the symbols of life's measure,
Thou wast only mortal born. [Refrain]
