Blessed be the Fountain

• • Blessed be the Fountain of blood, 
  • to a world of sinners revealed: 
  • blessed be the dear Son of God; 
  • only by His stripes are we healed. 
  • Though I’ve wandered far from His 
  • fold, 
  • bringing to my heart pain and woe, 
  • wash me in the blood of the Lamb, 
  • and I shall be whiter than snow. 
  • 
    
  • Whiter than the snow, Whiter than the snow, 
  • wash me in the blood of the Lamb, 
  • and I shall be whiter than snow. 
  • 
    
  • Thorny was the crown that He wore, 
  • and the cross His body o’ercame; 
  • grievous were the sorrows He bore, 
  • but He suffered thus not in vain. 
  • May I to that fountain be led, 
  • made to cleanse my sins here below; 
  • wash me in the blood that He shed, 
  • and I shall be whiter than snow. 
  • 
    
  • Father, I have wandered from Thee, 
  • often has my heart gone astray; 
  • crimson do my sins seem to me: 
  • water cannot wash them away. 
  • Jesus, to that fountain of Thine, 
  • leaning on Thy promise I go, 
  • cleanse me by Thy washing divine, 
  • and I shall be whiter than snow.
