1. Wonderful fountain of glory,
Flowing from Jesus' side;
When for the lost and guilty
He bowed his head and died.

Chorus:
Come to the beautiful cleansing,
Oh, it has made me free;
Heavenly fountains sending
Wonderful peace for me.

2. Wonderful, wonderful cleansing!
The precious blood I know
Over my heart is streaming,
Making me white as snow.

3. Beautiful, beautiful river!
Flooding my heart with love;
Flow in my bosom forever,
Pure as the fount above.

4. Oh, I am happy in Jesus,
Washed in his precious blood;
Singing in heavenly places,
Filled with the peace of God.
