Within that wondrous pool
Whose waves were agitated
Whene'er the angel's pow'r
Unseen its depth pervaded;
There ev'ry woe and pain
Could find a speedy cure
For him who first did gain
Its waters deep and pure.

In those five porches there
Great multitudes were gathered;
Blind, lame, deaf, rheumatic,
With palsy struck and withered,
Consumptive weak, in firm,
The leprous, crippled, poor,
Whoever was distressed
Was brought unto its door.

Likewise, ye sinners, come;
Be healed of your transgression!
O come both great and small,
Here you will find remission,
Salvation help and grace.
Here is the cleansing flood.
Each sinful stain efface,
Immersed in Jesus' blood.

But hasten; tarry not
Lest you should be forsaken!
If you would find the cure,
From sinful sleep awaken!
The Lord has conquered death,
And with His mighty hand
He'll wash you from your sin,
With Him in grace to stand.
