THERE is a fountain filled with bloodBy A Collection of Hymns C.M. 1 THERE is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Immanuel's veins; And sinners, plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains.
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. 3 O dying Lamb, thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed church of God Be saved to sin no more. 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. 5 Then in a nobler, sweeter song, I'll sing thy power to save; When this poor lisping, stammering tongue Lies silent in the grave. 6 Lord, I believe thou hast prepared, Unworthy though I be, For me a blood-bought free reward, A golden harp for me! 7 'Tis strung and tuned for endless years, And formed by power divine, To sound in God the Father's ears No other name but thine.
