Fountain of Life, to all below

Verse 1
Fountain of life, to all below,
Let thy salvation roll,
Water, replenish, and o’reflow
Every believing soul.

Verse 2
Into that happy number, Lord,
Us weary sinners take,
Jesu, fulfil thy gracious word
For thy own mercy’s sake.

Verse 3
Turn back our nature’s rapid tide,
And we shall flow to thee,
While down the stream of time we glide
To our eternity.

Verse 4
The well of life to us thou art,
Of joy the swelling flood,
Wafted by thee with willing heart
We swift return to God.

Verse 5
We soon shall reach the boundless sea,
Into thy fulness fall,
Be lost, and swallow’d up in thee,
Our God, our all in all.
