Refrain:
I've just come from the fountain,
I've just come from the fountain,
Lord, I've just come from the fountain,
his name's so sweet.
1 O brothers, I love Jesus,
O brothers, I love Jesus,
O brothers, I love Jesus,
His name's so sweet. (Refrain)
2 O sisters, I love Jesus,
O sisters, I love Jesus,
O sisters, I love Jesus,
His name's so sweet. (Refrain)
3 Been drinking from the fountain,
Been drinking from the fountain,
Been drinking from the fountain,
His name's so sweet.
