Representative Text

1 The Savior shed His precious blood
On Calvary's rugged tree,
Poor sinners lost to bring to God,
'Twas all for you and me.

Chorus:
Precious the blood it cleanseth us white,
Cleanseth us whiter, yes, whiter than snow;
Precious the blood of the Lamb that was Slain,
It cleanseth us whiter, yes, whiter than snow.

2 That precious blood before the throne,
Speaks pardon full and free,
For all who will the Saviour own,
It pleads for you and me. [Chorus]

3 The precious blood, the precious blood,
O precious let it be,
Confess the name of Christ thy Lord,
And from thy sin be free. [Chorus]
