The Cyber Hymnal ‎#9625

9625. O Glorious Fountain

1 Beneath the glorious throne above,
The crystal fountain springing,
A river full of life and love,
Is joy and gladness bringing.

Refrain:
O glorious fountain now flowing so free,
O fountain of cleansing opened wide for me.

2 Through all my soul its waters flow,
Thro’ all my nature stealing;
And deep within my heart I know
The consciousness of healing. [Refrain]

3 The barren wastes are fruitful lands,
The desert blooms with roses;
And He, the glory of all lands,
His lovely face discloses. [Refrain]

4 My sun no more goes down by day,
My moon no more is waning;
My feet run swift the shining way,
The heav’nly portals gaining. [Refrain]

5 Oh, depth of mercy! breadth of grace!
Oh, love of God unbounded!
My soul is lost in sweet amaze,
By wondrous love confounded. [Refrain]
