| Composer: | Margaret J. Harris, 19th century |
1 When I saw the cleansing fountain,
Open wide for all my sin,
I obeyed the Spirit’s wooing
When He said, Wilt thou be clean?
Chorus:
I will praise Him! I will praise Him!
Praise the Lamb for sinners slain;
Give Him glory, all ye people,
For His blood can wash away each stain.
2 Tho the way seems straight and narrow,
All I claimed was swept away;
My ambitions, plans, and wishes
At my feet in ashes lay. [Chorus]
3 Then God’s fire upon the altar
Of my heart was set aflame;
I shall never cease to praise Him -
Glory, glory to His name! [Chorus]
4 Blessed be the name of Jesus!
I’m so glad He took me in;
He’s forgiven my transgressions,
He has cleansed my heart from sin. [Chorus]
5 Glory, glory to the Father!
Glory, glory to the Son!
Glory, glory to the Spirit!
Glory to the Three in One! [Chorus]
