[Zec 13:1] Blessed Be The Fountain
Blessèd be the fountain of blood,
To a world of sinners revealed;
Blessèd be the dear Son of God;
Only by His stripes we are healed.
Tho’ 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.Refrain
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.Refrain
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 the fountain of Thine,
Leaning on Thy promise, I go;
Cleanse me by Thy washing divine,
And I shall be whiter than snow.Refrain

[Zec 13:1] Healing Fountain, The
There’s a fountain flowing
From the Savior’s side;
Life and health bestowing,
Since for man He died.And the Word declareth,
Bathing there is free;
Who is he that dareth
Hinder you and me?Heav’nly balm it poureth
Into hearts that grieve;
Gladness it restoreth
When earth’s comforts leave.Oft my heart was sinking
’Neath the load I bore;
Kneeling here, and drinking,
I was strong once more.By its murm’ring waters
I lie down each night;
When my courage totters
It renews my might.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Where sin’s demands were paid,
And rays of hope for tomorrow
Across our path were laid.Refrain

When gloom and sadness whisper,
“You’ve sinned—no use to pray,”

And He tells me to say:Refrain
And when we reach the portal
Where life forever reigns,
The ransomed hosts’ grand final
Will be this glad refrain.Refrain

Through the desert on their pilgrim way,

While we journey in a thirsty land;
Strong in Thee no earthly foe can harm us,
Thou our Rock on which we firmly stand.Refrain

Still from danger and from storm defend,
Sweet the promise to Thy faithful children,
Thou wilt guide and keep them to the end.Refrain

We shall praise Thee in the vales of Eden,
With the saints and angels evermore.Refrain

[Zec 13:1] There Is A Fountain Filled With Blood
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.The dying thief rejoiced to see that fountain in his day;
And there have I, though vile as he, washed all my sins away.
Washed all my sins away, washed all my sins away;
And there have I, though vile as he, washed all my sins away.Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood shall never lose its power
Till all the ransomed church of God be saved, to sin no more.
Be saved, to sin no more, be saved, to sin no more;
Till all the ransomed church of God be saved, to sin no more.E’er since, by faith, I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme, and shall be till I die.
And shall be till I die, and shall be till I die;
Redeeming love has been my theme, and shall be till I die.Then in a nobler, sweeter song, I’ll sing Thy power to save,
When this poor lisping, stammering tongue lies silent in the grave.
Lies silent in the grave, lies silent in the grave;
When this poor lisping, stammering tongue lies silent in the grave.Lord, I believe Thou hast prepared, unworthy though I be,
For me a blood bought free reward, a golden harp for me!
’Tis strung and tuned for endless years, and formed by power divine,
To sound in God the Father’s ears no other name but Thine.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

’Tis the fount of love from the Source above,
And He bids us all freely drink.Refrain
Will you come to the fountain free?
Will you come? ’tis for you and me;
Thirsty soul hear the welcome call:

From the throne of life now it flows;
While the waters roll let the weary soul
Hear the call that forth freely goes.Refrain

That may not its pure waters share;
’Tis for you and me, and its stream I see:
Let us hasten joyfully there.Refrain

[Zec 13:7] Alone
It was alone the Savior prayed
In dark Gethsemane;
Alone He drained the bitter cup
And suffered there for me.Refrain
Alone, alone, He bore it all alone;
He gave Himself to save His own,
He suffered, bled and died alone, alone.It was alone the Savior stood
In Pilate’s judgment hall;
Alone the crown of thorns He wore
Forsaken thus by all.Refrain
Alone upon the cross He hung
That others He might save;
Forsaken then by God and man
Alone, His life He gave.Refrain
Can you reject such matchless love?
Can you His claim disown?
Come, give your all in gratitude,
Nor leave Him thus alone.Refrain

[Zec 13:7] Souls Of Men, Why Will Ye Scatter
Souls of men, why will ye scatter
Like a crowd of frightened sheep?
Foolish hearts, why will ye wander
From a love so true and deep?Was there ever kinder shepherd
Half so gentle, half so sweet,
As the Savior Who would have us
Come and gather round His feet?There’s a wideness in God’s mercy,
Like the wideness of the sea;
There’s a kindness in His justice,
Which is more than liberty.There is no place where earth’s sorrows
Are more felt than up in Heaven;
There is no place where earth’s failings
Have such kindly judgment given.There is plentiful redemption
In the blood that has been shed;
There is joy for all the members
In the sorrows of the Head.For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of man’s mind.
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.Pining souls! come nearer Jesus,
And oh! come not doubting thus,
But with faith that trusts more bravely
His huge tenderness for us.If our love were but more simple,
We should take Him at His word;
And our lives would all be sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord.Play source: Cyberhymnal
