Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Christ in Song #293 (1908) Hymnal Title: Christ in Song First Line: In the blood from the cross Refrain First Line: Deeper yet, deeper yet Lyrics: 1 In the blood from the cross
I have been wash'd from sin;
But to be free from dross
Still I would enter in.
Chorus:
Deeper, yet, deeper yet,
Into the crimson flood;
Deeper yet, deeper yet,
Under the precious blood.
2 Day by day, hour by hour
Blessings are sent to me;
But for more of His pow'r
Ever my pray'r shall be. [Chorus]
3 Near to Christ I would live,
Following Him each day;
What I ask He will give,
So then with faith I pray. [Chorus]
4 Now I have peace, sweet peace,
While in this world of sin;
But to pray I'll not cease
Till I am pure within.
