88. Hallelujah for the Blood

1 I was lost in sin but Jesus took me in,
When I came to Him one day;
Oh, my heart was sad, but Jesus made me glad,
When He took my guilt away.

Refrain:
Hallelujah for the blood that cleanses from all sin!
Gives me perfect peace and pardon, took away my inbred sin;
I will praise Him for the flow,
That makes whiter than the snow,
Hallelujah for the precious blood!

2 When I found my need of a second work of grace,
And I consecrated all;
Thro’ the crimson tide I was wholly sanctified,
And the fire from heav’n did fall. [Refrain]

3 Ev’ry day I feel that sacred cleansing stream,
That from Calv’ry’s cross outpoured;
And this is my plea, my joy and victory,
Hallelujah, praise the Lord! [Refrain]

4 All the good I do cannot for my sins atone,
Jesus’ blood my only plea;
All things else must fail, and nothing can avail,
But the blood of Calvary. [Refrain]
