Through the Blood of Jesus

Author: Mrs. Harriet Jones Hymnal: Fair as the Morning. Hymns and Tunes for Praise in the Sunday-School #56 (1891) First Line: We shall reach our home some day Refrain First Line: Precious blood, crimson blood Lyrics: 1 We shall reach our home some day, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus; WE shall tread the golden way, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus; We shall lay each burden down And shall gain a glorious crown, Hallelujah! gain a crown Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus. Refrain: Precious blood, crimson blood; Oh, the precious blood of Jesus! Hallelujah! we shall gain a crown Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus. 2 We shall sit upon the right, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus; We shall wear the robes of white, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus; Done with toiling cares and fears, Done with partings, pains and tears, While shall roll the endless years, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus. [Refrain] 3 We shall hear the angels sing, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus; We shall gaze upon our King, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus; We shall join the upper throng In the sweet redemption song; Chant it sweetly, loud and long, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus. [Refrain] 4 We shall dwell in safety there, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus; Where the skies are ever fair, Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus; We shall never sigh again, We shall never die again; Glory to His holy name! Thro’ the precious blood of Jesus. [Refrain] Topics: Salvation Languages: English Tune Title: [We shall reach our home some day]

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[We shall reach our home some day]" in Soul Stirring Songs Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday­-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
