O the Blood of Jesus!

 

 

There’s only one thing that frees us
From a life of sin and woe—
It’s the precious blood of Jesus…
Reaching the lowest low.
O how can we ever thank Him
For that loving sacrifice?
On the cross, the pure Lamb of God
So willingly paid the price…
O the Blood of Jesus!

When the blood’s applied, sin’s removed
As far as east is from west—
We are free to live holy lives
And to know God’s very best.
There is no sin it cannot cleanse,
It’s more valuable than gold…
Only the precious blood of Christ
Can redeem a sinful soul…
O the Blood of Jesus!

That crimson flow keeps on cleansing
And freeing souls from despair,
Flowing from a love unending…
Its power is always there.
Our great Redeemer, Master, King,
Gladly gave His life for us—
Let us surrender everything
And sing that great old chorus…
“O the Blood of Jesus!”

 

“Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with
corruptible things, as silver and gold…But with the precious blood
of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot”
(1 Pet 1:18-19)
