Trinity Hymnal ‎#677

677. 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:
Oh, 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]

5 Now by this I'll overcome-
Nothing but the blood or Jesus;
Now by this I'll reach my home-
Nothing but the blood of Jesus. [Refrain]

Amen.
