There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood

Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6.6.6.8.6 Appears in 2,473 hymnals Topics: Redemption in Christ Christ's Saving Work 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 may I, though vile as he, wash all my sins away: wash all my sins away, wash all my sins away; and there may I, though vile as he, wash all my sins away. 3 Dear dying Lamb, thy precious blood shall never lose its power, till all the ransomed Church of God be saved, to sin no more: be saved, to sin no more, be saved, to sin no more; till all the ransomed Church of God be saved, to sin no more. 4 E'er since by faith I saw the stream thy 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. 5 When this poor lisping, stammering tongue lies silent in the grave, then in a nobler, sweeter song I'll sing thy power to save: I'll sing thy power to save, I'll sing thy power to save; then in a nobler, sweeter song I'll sing thy power to save.

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.

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
