23. There is a fountain

1 There is a fountain filled with blood,
Drawn from Immanuel's veins,
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains;
Lose all their guilty stains,
Lose all their guilty stains,
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 do I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away;
Wash all my sins away,
Wash all my sins away;
And there do I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away.

3 Thou dying Lamb! Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power,
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Are saved, to sin no more;
Are saved, to sin no more,
Are saved, to sin no more,
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Are saved, to sin no more.

4 When this poor, lisping, stamm'ring tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Then, in a nobler, sweeter song
I'll sing Thy power to save;
I'll sing Thy power to save,
I'll sing Thy power to save,
Then, in a nobler, sweeter song,
I'll sing Thy power to save.
