I Came to the Fountain

Verse 1

I came to the fountain of blessing, And looking to Jesus in prayer, I felt the sweet peace that He promised, And knew that His presence was there.

Chorus

And now, in His love I’m abiding; What moments of joy I see; For O, at the fountain of blessing, My Saviour communes with me.

Verse 2

The cloud from my spirit He lifted, And covered with sunshine my way; He taught me the beautiful lesson Of trusting from day unto day.

Chorus

And now, in His love I’m abiding; What moments of joy I see; For O, at the fountain of blessing, My Saviour communes with me.

Verse 3

Tho’ trials may sometimes o’ertake me, And sorrow perhaps may befall, I rest in the perfect assurance, His grace is sufficient for all.

And now, in His love I’m abiding; What moments of joy I see; For O, at the fountain of blessing, My Saviour communes with me.
