326. Nothing but the Blood

1 What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Refrain:
O precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

2 For my pardon this I see;
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
For my cleansing this my plea:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus. [Refrain]

3 Nothing can for sin atone:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Naught of good that I have done;
Nothing but the blood of Jesus. [Refrain]

4 This is all my hope and peace:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
This is all my righteousness:
Nothing but the blood of Jesus. [Refrain]
