Author: O. A. Pratt Hymnal: Timeless Truths #1024 Meter: 9.8.9.8.5.8.5.5.8 First Line: Oh, come to the fountain of cleansing Refrain First Line: Then come, sinner, come Lyrics: Oh, come to the fountain of cleansing,Dear sinner, why longer delay?The Savior is earnestly pleading,The fountain is open today. Refrain:Then come, sinner, comeTo the fountain so full and so free;Be cleansed from your sin,Be made pure within,The fountain is open for thee.Thy sins though like scarlet or crimson,His love as a river doth flow;Oh, plunge in this fountain of cleansing,And thou shalt be whiter than snow.A voice from the cross, “It is finished!”The fountain for sin opened wide;The purchase of life and salvationThrough Jesus, the Lamb crucified.Then come, sinner, come to the fountainAnd plunge in its soul-cleansing wave;Launch out on the infinite mercy,Of Jesus, the Mighty to save.
