1 Sins of years are washed away,
Blackest stains become as snow,
Darkest night is chang'd to-day,
When you to the Fountain go.
2 Doubts and fears are borne along
On the current's ceaseless flow,
Sorrow changes into song,
When you to the Fountain go.
3 East and wealth become as dross,
Worthless, earth's delight and show,
All your boast is in the Cross,
When you to the Fountain go.
4 Selfishness is lost in love,
Love for Him whose love you know,
All your treasure is above,
When you to the Fountain go.
5 In His service is delight,
Never will you fear the foe,
Armed by King Jehovah's might,
When you to the Fountain go.
