the fountain / in Your light

For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light. 

Psalm 36:9


Darkness exists even

in beautiful places

and sin leaves destruction

even in happy faces


shine the light

the darkness flees

wash in the fountain

from sin made clean


You are a fountain

of everlasting life

Jesus brings peace

ending sin's strife


shine the light

the darkness flees

wash in the fountain

from sin made clean


People in darkness

have forgotten how to see

polluted by sin

they don't know their need


shine the light

the darkness flees

wash in the fountain

from sin made clean


"There is a fountain filled with blood

drawn from Emmanuel's veins

and sinners plunged beneath that flood

lose all their guilty stains."
