7. The Cleansing Fountain

1 Will you come to the cleansing fountain,
Will you come, sinner, come today?
Will you come to the blessed Saviour
Who will wash all your sins away?

Refrain:
Will you come, will you come,
Will you now at His footstool bow?
Will you come to the cleansing fountain?
Sinner, come, He will save just now.

2 Will you come to the cleansing fountain,
Will you come in the morn of life?
Will you come e’er thy heart is hardened,
Will you come e’er it knoweth strife? [Refrain]

3 Will you come to the cleansing fountain,
Will you come in the noonday bright?
Will you come e’er the darkness deepens
Into one long eternal night? [Refrain]

4 Will you come to the cleansing fountain,
Tho’ thy hairs be of silv’ry hue?
He who knows when the sparrows falleth,
Long hath graciously cared for you. [Refrain]
