Author: Mrs. Phoebe Palmer (1807-1874) Hymnal: Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal #332 (1985) First Line: O now I see the crimson wave Refrain First Line: The cleansing stream I see, I see Lyrics: 1 Oh now I see the crimson wave,
The fountain deep and wide;
Jesus, my Lord, mighty to save,
Points to His wounded side.
Refrain
The cleansing stream I see, I see,
I plunge, and O, it cleanseth me!
O praise the Lord! it cleanseth me,
It cleanseth me, yes, cleanseth me.
2 I see the new creation rise,
I hear the speaking blood;
It speaks polluted nature dies,
Sinks ‘neath the cleansing flood. [Refrain]
3 I rise to walk in heaven’s own light,
Above the world and sin;
With heart made pure and garments white,
And Christ enthroned within. [Refrain]
4 Amazing grace! ’tis heaven below
To feel the blood applied,
And Jesus, only Jesus, know,
My Jesus crucified. [Refrain] Topics: Gospel Baptism Tune Title: [O now I see the crimson wave]
