Much we talk of Jesus' blood
Author: Hart Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Sufferings, Death, and Cross of Christ Lyrics: 1 Much we talk of Jesus’ blood;
But how little’s understood!
Of his sufferings so intense,
Angels have no perfect sense.
Who can rightly comprehend
Their beginning or their end?
’Tis to God, and God alone,
That their weight is fully known.
2 [O thou hideous monster, Sin,
What a curse hast thou brought in!
All creation groans through thee,
Pregnant cause of misery.
Thou hast ruined wretched man,
Ever since the world began;
Thou hast God afflicted too;
Nothing less than that would do.
3 Would we then rejoice indeed?
Be it that from thee we’re freed;
And our justest cause to grieve
Is that thou wilt to us cleave.
Faith relieves us from thy guilt,
But we think whose blood was spilt;
All we hear, or feel, or see,
Serves to raise our hate to thee.]
4 Dearly we are bought, for God
Bought us with his own heart’s blood;
Boundless depths of love divine!
Jesus, what a love was thine!
Though the wonders thou hast done
Are as yet so little known,
Here we fix and comfort take –
Jesus died for sinners’ sake. Scripture: Lamentations 1:12
Much we talk of Jesus' blood

The White of the stars shining bright;

By this sign shall the world seem as dross;
See our emblem of faithful devotion:
Our Flag with the sign of the cross.

All hail to the Flag of the Cross!
All hail to the Flag of the Cross!
See our emblem of faithful devotion:
Our Flag with the sign of the cross.
2 May the Flag lead us onward and upward,
Its Blue helping us to be true;
Its White symbol of our soul’s brightness,
Its Red of His love held in view.
It’s an emblem whose folds reflect heaven,
And speak of the bliss without loss;
A banner of peace and of conquest:
Our Flag with the sign of the cross. [Refrain]
3 Long may that dear Flag be victorious,
Long may it inspire us to save
The victims still bound with sin’s fetters,
Who stand in the gloom of the grave.
Our Flag speaks of life everlasting,
When its folds in the breeze bravely toss;
How it cheers the despondent and grieving:
Our Flag with the sign of the cross. [Refrain] Used With Tune: COLUMBIA, THE GEM OF THE OCEAN
Our Flag Has the Blue of the Heavens
