Zechariah 13:1: Ill that day there shall be a fountain opened, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)

Religion

By faith I to the fountain fly,
Open'd for all mankind and me,
To purge my sins of deepest dye.
My life, and heart's impurity:
From Christ, the smitten Rock, it flows:
The purple and the crystal stream
Pardon and holiness bestows:
And both I gain through faith in Him.
