Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD AEFG HIHI JKLK MCNC OPOP| There is a fountain fill'd with blood | A |
| Drawn from Emmanuel's veins | B |
| And sinners plunged beneath that flood | A |
| Lose all their guilty stains | B |
| - | |
| The dying thief rejoiced to see | C |
| That fountain in his day | D |
| And there have I as vile as he | C |
| Wash'd all my sins away | D |
| - | |
| Dear dying Lamb Thy precious blood | A |
| Shall never lose its power | E |

| Be saved to sin no more | G |

| E'er since by faith I saw the stream | H |
| Thy flowing wounds supply | I |
| Redeeming love has been my theme | H |
| And shall be till I die | I |
| - | |
| Then in a nobler sweeter song | J |
| I'll sing Thy power to save | K |
| When this poor lisping stammering tongue | L |
| Lies silent in the grave | K |
| - | |
| Lord I believe Thou hast prepared | M |
| Unworthy though I be | C |
| For me a blood bought free reward | N |
| A golden harp for me | C |
| - | |
| 'Tis strung and tuned for endless years | O |
| And form'd by power divine | P |
| To sound in God the Father's ears | O |
| No other name but Thine | P |
William Cowper
