Lyrics

Will you meet me at the fountain,
Where the crystal waters flow?
Will you meet me at the fountain?
You can wash as white as snow.
There we’ll meet our loving Savior,
Hear His gentle words of love;
And we’ll live in sweet communion
With the saints in Heav’n above.

Refrain

Yes, I’ll meet you at the fountain,
With its waters bright and clear
(Oh, yes, I’ll meet you, meet you);
Yes, I’ll meet you at the fountain,
Yes, I’ll meet you, meet you there.

Will you meet me at the fountain?
Christ, our Savior, bids you come;
Will you meet me at the fountain?
He’ll prepare for you a home.
Other friends will give you welcome,
Many loving hearts you’ll cheer;
Won’t you meet me at the fountain,
At the fountain bright and clear?

Refrain

Will you meet me at the fountain,
Join the heav’nly choir above?
Will you meet me at the fountain,
There where all is peace and love?
There’ll be music at the fountain,
Not a sorrow, not a tear;
Christ is waiting there to greet you,
Won’t you, won’t you meet me there?
