Thanks For The Blood

 

 

Thanks for the Blood, the precious Blood of the Lamb,

For its power to snatch me from where I am,

Power to stand against the most demanding foe,

Promise of Blood for the sinful life below.

 

Thanks for the Blood, efficient Blood of the Lamb,

Trustworthy to save me and keep me from sin’s harm,

Efficient, effective, to wash and make whole,

Every wretched, every guilty sin-sick soul.

 

Thanks for the Blood, pardoning Blood of the Lamb,

Saw me when I was under sin’s curse and damn,

Ineffable Blood! Who can its worth tell?

All I know is its Might that took me from hell.

 

Thanks for the Blood, surpassing Blood of the Lamb,

Fortresses and keeps safe from every alarm,

Faithful, its cleansing, pardoning work to do,

Ineffaceable Blood, Jesus Lamb, thank You.  

Amen!
