167. Jesus Says So

1 The blood of Christ, for sinners shed,
Will wash us white as snow;
His Spirit brings to life the dead,
For Jesus says so.

Refrain:
For Jesus says so,
For Jesus says so;
His blood now cleanses, this I know,
For Jesus says so.

2 His blood He freely shed for all;
Oh, see the fountain flow!
His Spirit unto all doth call;
For Jesus says so. [Refrain]

3 The lights now gleam upon the shore,
Where we some day may go,
And dwell with Him forevermore,
For Jesus says so. [Refrain]

4 In that fair land we’ll rest at last,
In garments white as snow,
When all the cares of earth are past,
For Jesus says so. [Refrain]

5 O come to Jesus, come today;
He’ll wash you white as snow,
He will not turn one soul away,
For Jesus says so. [Refrain]
