302. When I See the Blood

1 Christ our Redeemer died on the cross,
Died for the sinner, paid all his due;
Sprinkle your soul with the blood of the Lamb,
And "I will pass, will pass over you."

Chorus:
"When I see the blood,
When I see the blood,
When I see the blood,
I will pass, I will pass over you."

2 Chiefest of sinners, Jesus will save -
As He has promised, that He will do;
Wash in the fountain opened for sin,
And "I will pass, will pass over you." [Chorus]

3 Judgment is coming, all will be there,
Each one receiving justly his due;
Hide in the saving sin-cleasing blood,
And "I will pass, will pass over you." [Chorus]

4 O great compassion! O boundless love!
O loving kindness, faithful and true!
Find peace and shelter under the blood,
And I will pass, will pass over you. [Chorus]
