Precious Blood              

Don Fortner

(Tune: When I Can Read My Title Clear #497     CM)

A fountain from the throne of God

       Of life abundant springs,

       That through Immanuel’s precious blood

       Eternal blessings bring.

 

 

My awful debt I could not pay.

       Justly condemned I stood,

       ‘Til Jesus came and washed away

       My debt with His own blood.

 

 

My debt He paid and washed away

       My sins beneath the flood.

       My guilt my Savior took away

       By His atoning blood.

 

 

The voice that speaks in heav’n for me,

       And there secures my good,

       Is that which took the curse from me,

       Christ’s all-prevailing blood!

 

 

Christ’s blood my tongue on earth employs;

       And, at the throne of God,

       In heaven I will sing with joy

       Of Jesus’ precious blood!
