Fountain of Grace
There is a fountain of grace - flowing out from mercy's source
To flood a barren wilderness and to cut an ever deepening course
Through the valley of the shadow- it will wash away the stain
On every heart that will believe- it cleanses and constrains
Flow through this dirty vessel- cleanse from all guilt and shame
Purify me wholly- make me holy, without blame
Take me under into wonder that I might drown in you
For you will raise me up again washed clean and renewed.
There is a fountain of grace - flowing out from mercy's source
To flood a barren wilderness and to cut an ever deepening course
Through the valley of the shadow- it will wash away the stain
On every heart that will believe- it cleanses and constrains
Lift my feet fromn your mountain unto a higher place
To the source of the fountain of your amazing grace
Let me walk on THAT water that lives forevermore
Let me drink of the cleansing power of your presence Lord!
