Verse 1There is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Emmanuel’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
Verse 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see that fountain in his day And there have I though vile as he wash all my sins away Wash all my sins away wash all my sins away And there have I though vile as he wash all my sins away
Verse 3 E’er since by faith I saw the stream thy flowing wounds supply Redeeming love has been my theme and shall be ’til I die And shall be ’til I die and shall be ’til I die Redeeming love has been my theme and shall be ’til I die
Verse 4 How shall we stand as guilty men before His holy throne But by the sinless life of Christ and His pleading blood alone His pleading blood alone by his pleading blood alone But by the sinless life of Christ and His pleading blood alone
