Tabernacle Hymns ‎#258

258. Cleansing Wave

1 Oh, now I see the crimson wave!
The fountain deep and wide;
Jesus, my Lord, mighty to save,
Points to His wounded side.

Chorus:
The cleansing stream, I see! I see!
I plunge, and oh, it cleanseth me!
Oh, praise the Lord, it cleanseth me!
It cleanseth me - yes, cleanseth me.

2 I rise to walk in heaven's own light,
Above the world and sin,
With heart made pure and garments white,
And Christ enthroned within. [Chorus]

3 Amazing grace! 'tis heaven below
To feel the blood applied,
And Jesus, only Jesus know,
My Jesus crucified. [Chorus]
The cleansing stream, etc.
