An old but new song for us this morning, so much life and truth.

“There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood” was written by William Cowper (1731–1800), one of England’s great Christian hymn writers. He worked closely with John Newton, author of Amazing Grace, and together they produced the Olney Hymns in 1779.

Cowper experienced deep periods of depression and personal struggle throughout his life, yet his faith inspired some powerful hymns.

There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood draws particularly from Zechariah 13:1: “In that day there shall be a fountain opened… for sin and for uncleanness.”

The hymn points directly to Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, celebrating the cleansing, forgiveness and salvation available through His blood.

Its famous opening image—“There is a fountain filled with blood, drawn from Immanuel’s veins”—has made it an enduring hymn about the power of the cross.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped get the Skye Gathering Hall prepared for the annual Skye Balls. Your help was very much appreciated!

As part of our lease agreement, we vacate the hall for two weeks while the Balls take place.

This means there will be no Xcel Nights for the next two Wednesdays.

For the next two Sundays, we’ll be doing something a little different and meeting for House Church at Mary’s home at 11am.

Everyone is very welcome.

Last year, our two weeks of House Church were really special — relaxed, welcoming and a lovely time together — so we’re looking forward to doing it again.

Sundays • 11am • Mary’s House

If you need directions or a lift, just let us know.
See you Sunday!
