Zecheriah xiiiA
-
There is a fountain fill'd with bloodB
Drawn from Emmanuel's veinsA
And sinners plunged beneath that floodB
Lose all their guilty stainsA
-
The dying thief rejoiced to seeA
That fountain in his dayC
And there have I as vile as heA
Wash'd all my sins awayC
-
Dear dying Lamb Thy precious bloodB
Shall never lose its powerD
Till all the ransom'd church of GodE
Be saved to sin no moreF
-
E'er since by faith I saw the streamG
Thy flowing wounds supplyH
Redeeming love has been my themeG
And shall be till I dieH
-
Then in a nobler sweeter songI
I'll sing Thy power to saveJ
When this poor lisping stammering tongueK
Lies silent in the graveJ
-
Lord I believe Thou hast preparedL
Unworthy though I beA
For me a blood bought free rewardM
A golden harp for meA
-
'Tis strung and tuned for endless yearsA
And form'd by power divineN
To sound in God the Father's earsA
No other name but ThineN

William Cowper
