The New Praiseworthy ‎#250

250. Savior, Wash Me in the Blood

1 There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel's veins;
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.

Chorus:
Savior, wash me in the blood,
Savior, wash me in the blood;
O wash me in the blood,
And I shall be whiter than snow.

2 The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there may I, as vile as he,
Wash all my sins away. [Chorus]

3 Thou dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved, to sin no more. [Chorus]

4 E'er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be till I die. [Chorus]
