Representative Text

1 Hay un precioso manantial
de sangre de Emanuel,
Que purifica a cada cual
que se sumerge en él.
Que se sumerge en él,
que se sumerge en él.
Que purifica a cada cual
que se sumerge en él.

2 El malhechor se convirtió
pendiente de una cruz;
Él vio la fuente y se lavó,

La gloria de su gran poder

4 ¡Eterna fuente carmesí!
¡Raudal de puro amor!
Se lavará por siempre en Ti

El pueblo del Señor,
el pueblo del Señor.
Se lavará por siempre en Ti
el pueblo del Señor.
