There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood

His blood atoned for all our race, his blood atoned for all our race, and sprinkles now the throne of grace. 3 Five bleeding wounds he bears, received on Calvary; they pour effectual prayers; they strongly plead for me. “Forgive him, O, forgive,” they cry, “Forgive him, O, forgive,” they cry, “nor let that ransomed sinner die.” 4 The Father hears him pray, his dear anointed One; he cannot turn away the presence of his Son. His Spirit answers to the blood, his Spirit answers to the blood, and tells me I am born of God. 5 My God is reconciled; his pardoning voice I hear; he owns me for His child: I can no longer fear. With confidence I now draw nigh, with confidence I now draw nigh, and, “Father, Abba, Father,” cry. Scripture: Luke 22:42 Used With Tune: LENOX

Praise we Christ, whose blood was shed, Paschal victim, Paschal bread; With sincerity and love Eat we manna from above. 3 Mighty victim from on high, Hell's fierce pow'rs beneath you lie; You have conquered in the fight, You have brought us life and light. Now no more can death appall, Now no more the grave enthrall; You have opened paradise, And in you your saints shall rise. 4 Easter triumph, Easter joy, This alone can sin destroy; From sin's pow'r, Lord, set us free, Newborn souls in you to be.
