593. Living Fountain, Freely Flowing

1 Living Fountain, freely flowing
In the sheen of heaven's day,
Grace and life on us bestowing,
Wash Thou all our sins away.

2 Fountain whence alone the living
Draw the life they boast as theirs,
By Thy grace, a gift whose giving
Life of life forever shares.

3 Who Thy mighty depths can measure?
Who can sound, with earthly line,
Thy profoundity of treasure,
Thy infinity divine.

4 They who quaff Thy wave shall never
Thirst again; for springing free
In their hearts, a fount forever,
Thou, to them, of life shalt be.

5 May we drink of Thee rejoicing,
Till on heaven's sinless shore,
We Thy virtues shall be voicing
With the blest for evermore.

Amen.
