It Cleanseth

Representative Text

1 Our fellowship is blessed,
While walking in the light;
The blood of Jesus cleanseth,
And sets our hearts aright.

Refrain:
Yes, it cleanseth, O glory, hallelujah!
Now the blood of Jesus cleanseth me, yes, me!
Yes, it cleanseth, O glory, hallelujah!
For the blood that cleanseth me.

2 See, from his hands now flowing,
And from his feet and side,
The stream of life is flowing,
From wounds both deep and wide. [Refrain]

3 And now we have redemption
Thro’ Jesus’ precious blood,
Transgressions are forgiven,
According to his word. [Refrain]

4 When we ascend to glory,
Around the throne of God,
We’ll sing of him who loved us,
And washed us in his blood. [Refrain]
