The Best of All ‎#241

241. Keeping Power

1 It was the Saviour’s precious blood
That cleansed my soul, that cleansed my soul
‘Tis still the precious healing flood
That keeps me fully whole.

Refrain:
Wonderful keeping power, glorious keeping power,
I’m abiding in the fountain that flows so full and free,
Wonderful keeping power, glorious keeping power,
The blood now cleanseth me.

2 No power have I my feet to keep
Within the way, within the way;
But Jesus knows my feeble frame
And saves me day by day. [Refrain]

3 I cannot tell how I am saved
By blood alone, by blood alone;
Nor how it is my soul he keeps
But this I know, ’tis done. [Refrain]

4 With jealous care and watchful eye
He guards his own, he guards his own;
No power can snatch them from his hand
Who trust in God alone. [Refrain]
