Calvary Songs ‎#59

59. Washed in the Blood of the Lamb

1 There is a fountain, deep and wide,
Where flows the crimson flood,
Once opened in my Saviour's side,
And filled with hallowed blood.

Refrain:
Washed in the blood of the Lamb,
Whiter than snow I shall be;
Washed in the blood of the Lamb,
Who died on Calvary.

2 How can I rest, my gracious Lord,
Till I am pure within?
Oh, purify me through thy blood,
From all my inbred sin. [Refrain]

3 With welcome kind thou dost receive
My consecrated soul;
While I in thee my Lord believe,
Thy blood doth make me whole. [Refrain]

4 Oh, how shall I the Saviour praise
Who shed his blood for me!
In loudest strains my voice I'll raise,
And shout the victory. [Refrain]
