1 Jesus saves me, this I know,
Underneath the crimson flow;
He has washed away my sin,
Made me white and pure within.

Refrain:
Yes, Jesus saves me;
Yes, Jesus saves me;
Yes, Jesus saves me,
And cleanses me from sin.

2 Sinful though my nature be,
Jesus died to set me free;
Died that sin might be destroyed,
Died, that love might fill the void. [Refrain]

3 Failures, Jesus never knew;
What He promised, He can do;
And the altar sanctifies
Me, a living sacrifice. [Refrain]

4 In the twinkling of an eye,
Jesus’ blood can sanctify;
Trustingly my all I give,
Perfect cleansing I receive. [Refrain]
