The Royal Fountain

Author: William Henry Clark Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8981 First Line: See where the living waters glide Refrain First Line: Then come to the royal fountain Lyrics: 1 See where the living waters glide, From David’s house they sweetly flow; Who washes in the cleansing tide, Is whiter than the driven snow. Refrain: Then come to the royal fountain, Ever in its stream abide; Come to the royal fountain, Opened in the Savior’s side. 2 It flows an ever running stream, Pure as the fountain of His grace, Who died that He might thus redeem The fallen sons of Adam’s race. [Refrain] 3 Down through the ages flowing wide, Its virtue is today the same, As when from out His piercèd side, The mingled tide of being came. [Refrain] 4 Whoever will, may drink and live; New life the healing draught inspires; From those who nothing have to give, The royal bounty naught requires. [Refrain] 5 All over Canaan’s godly land, Where saints enjoy such sweet repose; ’Mid pastures green on every hand, King David’s royal fountain flows. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [See where the living waters glide]

William J. Kirkpatrick

1838 - 1921 Person Name: Wm. J. Kirkpatrick Composer of "[See where the living waters glide]" in Augsburg Songs for Sunday Schools and other services William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia. Bert Polman

William H. Clark

1854 - 1925 Person Name: Wm. H. Clark Author of "Come to the Royal Fountain" in Augsburg Songs for Sunday Schools and other services Clark, William Henry. (Racine, Wisconsin, April 8, 1854--November 8, 1925, Rome, New York). Free Methodist. In his infancy, his parents returned to their former home in New York State, where his mother soon died, and his father married a close friend of hers, who forecast, after William's conversion in 1873, that one day he would be a bishop. He served the Susquehanna Conference of his denomination as a pastor and district superintendent from 1876 until 1919, when his stepmother's prediction came true. Meanwhile, he had been a member of the joint commission of the Free and Wesleyan Methodist Churches which compiled the Hymnal of 1910, and contributed some items to it. He died in office, requesting no eulogy at his funeral. --Arlene Clyde, DNAH Archives, rev. Hugh McKellar
