[Fountain of life Divine]

The Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them. John v. 21.

Even so the Son quickeneth whom He will. Ibid.

It is the Spirit that quickeneth. Ibid. vi. 63.

Fountain of life Divine
The Three in One we know,
The Father, Son, and Spirit join
To quicken all below;
Each person of the three
The breath of lives inspires;
And then we rise our God to see,
And do what He requires.
Spiritual life to' impart
The Father's power we feel;
The Son doth the same power exert
And quickens whom He will:
The quickening Spirit stirs
Infusing His own grace;
And the whole Trinity concurs,
Me from the dead to raise.
