Blessed Be the Fountain -ghf196.mid - [Play Midi]

1. Blessed be the Fountain of blood,
   To a world of sinners revealed
   Blessed 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.

2. 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.

3. 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.

Chorus:

Whiter than the snow, Whiter than the snow
Wash me in the blood of the Lamb
And I shall be whiter than snow.
