Hymn 254
There is a fountain filled with blood
Meter: C.M.
Scripture: Zechariah 13:1
1
There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel’s veins;
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains.
2
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.
3
Then in a nobler, sweeter song
I’ll sing Thy power to save,
When this poor lisping, stammering tongue
Lies silent in the grave.
4
Lord, I believe Thou hast prepared,
Unworthy though I be,
For me a blood-bought free reward,
A golden harp for me.
5
'Tis strung and tuned for endless years,
And form’d by pow’r divine,
To sound in God the Father’s ears,
No other name but Thine.
