Author: Rev. W. McDonald Hymnal: Beulah Songs #22 (1879) First Line: Ah, many years my burden'd heart Refrain First Line: There is pow'r in Jesus' blood Lyrics: 1 Ah, many years my burden’d heart
Has sighed, has longed to know
The virtue of my Saviour’s blood,
That washes white as snow.
Refrain:
There is pow’r in Jesus’ blood,
There is pow’r in Jesus’ blood,
There is pow’r in Jesus’ blood
To wash me white as snow.
2 I heard the saints in rapture tell,
How much a soul may know
Of Jesus’ precious cleansing blood,
That washes white as snow. [Refrain]
3 I came to Jesus sick and vile,
That I this grace might know;
And trusted in his precious blood
To wash me white as snow. [Refrain]
4 He cast on me a look of love,
Such as no words can show;
I felt within my very soul
He washed me white as snow. [Refrain]
5 I’ll tell to every saint I meet,
To sinners high and low,
That, trusting in the Saviour’s blood,
It washes white as snow. [Refrain]
6 And when to that bright world above,
My raptured soul shall go,
My song shall be—the precious blood,
Still washes white as snow. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Ah, many years my burden'd heart]
