I am glad that I was born to die, From grief and woe my soul shall fly

Representative Text

1 I'm glad that I am born to die,
I've been washed in the blood of the Lamb,
From grief and woe my soul shall fly,
I've been wash'd in the blood of the Lamb.

Refrain:
I've been redeemed, I've been redeemed,
I've been redeemed, I've been redeemed,
I've been redeemed, I've been redeemed,
I've been wash'd in the blood of the Lamb.

2 Bright angels shall from glory come,
I've been washed in the blood of the Lamb,
And bear the weary pilgrim home,
I've been wash'd in the blood of the Lamb. [Refrain]

3 I'll praise him while he lends me breath,
I've been washed in the blood of the Lamb,
I hope to praise him after death,
I've been wash'd in the blood of the Lamb. [Refrain]
