[Verse 1]
There 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
