NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD

Verse 1
What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus


Verse 2
For my pardon, this I see,
nothing but the blood of Jesus
For my cleansing this my plea,
nothing but the blood of Jesus

Chorus
Oh! Precious is the flow,
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Verse 3
Nothing can for sin atone,
nothing but the blood of Jesus
Nothing good that I have done,
nothing but the blood of Jesus

Bridge
Where is all your hope and peace,
only in the blood of Jesus

Where is all your righteousness,
only in the blood of Jesus

Tell me how you'll overcome,
only by the blood of Jesus

Tell me how you'll reach your home‚
only by the blood of Jesus

Glory! Let your voices ring -
nothing but the blood of Jesus

Glory! All your praises bring -
nothing but the blood of Jesus

There is no more for heaven now to give

He is my joy, my righteousness, and freedom

For my life is wholly bound to His

Oh how strange and divine, I can sing: all is mine!

Yet not I, but through Christ in me
