There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood

Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6.6.6.8.6 Appears in 2,621 hymnals Topics: Christ Suffering of Lyrics: 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 have I, as vile as he, washed all my sins away: washed all my sins away, washed all my sins away; and there have I, as vile as he, washed all my sins away. 3 E'er since by faith I saw the stream your flowing wounds supply, redeeming love has been my theme, and shall be till I die: and shall be till I die, and shall be till I die; redeeming love has been my theme, and shall be till I die. 4 Then in a nobler, sweeter song I'll sing your pow'r to save, when this poor lisping, stamm'ring tongue lies silent in the grave: lies silent in the grave, lies silent in the grave; when this poor lisping, stamm'ring tongue lies silent in the grave. 5 Dear dying Lamb, your precious blood shall never lose its pow'r, 'til all the ransomed church of God be saved, to sin no more: be saved, to sin no more, be saved, to sin no more; 'til all the ransomed church of God be saved to sin no more.
