1 When the Savior came to dwell below
On the cross His wondrous love to show,
Twas that all this blessed truth might know
There is cleansing in the blood,
Chorus:
There is cleansing in the blood, in the blood,
There is cleansing in the blood, in the blood;
All who in the Lord believe,
shall have life, and joy, and peace,
There is cleansing in the blood.
2 You have doubtless heard it oft before
Yet the Spirit comes to thee once more,
And repeats the story o’er and o’er
There is cleansing in the blood, [Chorus]
3 'Twas for you the Lord was crucified,
See His bleeding hands, His feet, his side,
'Twas for you He suffered thus and died,
There is cleansing in the blood, [Chorus]
4 Hear and heed the Spirit’s pleading voice,
Come! oh come, and make the Lord your choice,
And this truth will make you to rejoice
There is cleansing in the blood, [Chorus]
5 Savior dear, to Thee my heart I bring,
Now accept my humble offering,
That with all thy saved ones I may sing
There is cleansing in the blood, [Chorus]
