Pentecostal Jewels ‎#42

42. I See a Crimson Stream

1 On Calv’ry’s hill of sorrow
Where sin’s demands were paid,
And rays of hope for tomorrow
Across our path were laid.

Chorus:
I see a crimson stream of blood,
It flows from Calvary,
It’s waves which reach the throne of God,
Are sweeping over me.

2 Today no condemnation
Abides to turn away
My soul from His salvation,
He’s in my heart to stay. [Chorus]

3 When gloom and sadness whisper
You’ve sin’d no use to pray,
I look away to Jesus,
And he tells me to say: [Chorus]

4 And when we reach the portal
Where life forever reigns,
The ransom’d hosts grand final
Will be this glad refrain. [Chorus]
