Author: Elisha A. Hoffman Hymnal: Light and Life Songs No. 4 #15 (1928) Hymnal Title: Light and Life Songs No. 4 First Line: From the cross there flows a hallowed stream Refrain First Line: Oh, this stream of crimson flood Lyrics: 1 From the cross there flows a hallowed stream,
Full of power, sinners to redeem;
Let the world the blessed tidings know,
That this stream can wash as white as now.
Chorus:
Oh, this stream of crimson flood!
Oh, this hallowed saving blood!
Let the world the blessed tidings know,
That Jesus blood can wash as white as snow.
2 Millions there have washed away their sin;
Millions more may freely enter in;
To this fountain let the sin-sick go,
And its stream will was as white as snow. [Chorus]
3 Peace and pardon, life and love it brings,
Till the soul in holy rapture sings
In the strains that swift and praiseful flow:
Jesus’ blood can wash as white as snow. [Chorus]
