Representative Text

1 See millions crushed beneath the load
Of sin’s deep, dark despair,
Hopeless and lost, their doom is sealed,
Oh, who can reach them there?

Chorus:
There is pow’r, a wondrous pow’r,
‘Twill change their gloom to radiant light;
The mighty pow’r of Jesus’ blood,
Will turn to day the darkest night.

2 “We are but cattle,” hear them moan;
With tearless grief they sigh;
When Jesus’ blood has been applied—
“A son of God am I!” [Chorus]

3 Singing the hearts once crushed ‘neath woe;
Beaming the eyes once dim;
Jesus, the Savior of the world,
Brings life and joy with Him. [Chorus]
