Precious Blood. 1 Pet. 1. 19
1
What sacred Fountain yonder springs
 
Up from the throne of God,
 
And all new covenant blessings brings?
 
’Tis Jesus’ precious blood.
2
What mighty sum paid all my debt,
 
When I a bondman stood,
 
And has my soul at freedom set?
 
’Tis Jesus’ precious blood.
3
What stream is that which sweeps away
 
My sins just like a flood,
 
Nor lets one guilty blemish stay?
 
’Tis Jesus’ precious blood.
4
What voice is that which speaks for me
 
In heaven’s high court for good,
 
And from the curse has set me free?
 
’Tis Jesus’ precious blood.
5
What theme, my soul, shall best employ
 
Thy harp before thy God,
 
And make all heaven to ring with joy?
 
’Tis Jesus’ precious blood.
