Honey Out of the Rock ‎#39

39. I Will Trust in the Blood of the Lamb

1 Forever here my rest shall be,
Close to Thy bleeding side;
This all my hope, and all my plea,—
For me the Savior died.

Refrain:
I will trust, I will trust,
I will trust in the blood of the Lamb;
I will trust, I will trust,
I will trust in the blood of the Lamb.

2 My dying Savior, and my God,—
Fountain for guilt and sin,
Sprinkle me ever in Thy blood,
And cleanse, and keep me clean. [Refrain]

3 Wash me, and make me thus Thine own;
Wash me, and mine Thou art,
Wash me, but not my feet alone,—
My hands, my head, my heart. [Refrain]

4 The atonement of Thy blood apply,
Till faith to sight improve;
Till hope shall in fruition die,
And all my soul be love. [Refrain]
