Hymnal: A Pocket hymn-book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #CCLXXIX (1790) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Fountain of life, to all below
Let thy salvation roll,
Water, replenish, and o'erflow
Every believing soul.
2 Into that happy number, Lord,
Us weary sinners take,
Jesus, fulfil thy gracious word,
For thy own mercy's sake.
3 Turn back our nature's rapid tide,
And we shall flow to thee,
While down the stream of time we glide
To our eternity.
4 The well of life to us thou art,
Of joy the swelling flood,
Wafted by thee with willing heart
We swift return to God.
5 We soon shall reach the boundless sea,
Into thy fulness fall,
Be lost and swallowed up in thee
Our God, our All in All. Topics: Petition Languages: English
