1 Oh, glory to the cleansing blood!
It cleanseth even me;
Salvation, thro’ the purple flood,
Just now by faith I see.

Refrain:
It cleanseth me, it cleanseth me,
It cleanseth even me;
Oh, glory to the cleansing blood!
It cleanseth even me.

2 Oh, glory to the cleansing stream
That flow’d from Calvary’s cross!
Forever this shall be my theme:
It purges from all dross. [Refrain]

3 Oh, glory to the cleansing tide
Of water and of blood!
That flowed from Jesus’ pierced side,—
A healing, cleansing flood. [Refrain]

4 Oh, glory to the cleansing pow’r
Of Christ, our blessed King!
For perfect trust, each day, each hour,
Doth perfect cleansing bring! [Refrain]

5 Then glory to the cleansing flood,
That makes me pure within!
For this I know, Christ’s precious blood
Doth cleanse me from all sin. [Refrain]
