Lyrics

We’re saved by the blood
That was drawn from the side
Of Jesus our Lord,
When He languished and died.

Refrain

Hallelujah to God,
For redemption so free;
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Dear Savior, to Thee.

O yes, ’tis the blood
Of the Lamb that was slain;
He conquered the grave,
And He liveth again.

Refrain

We’re saved by the blood;
We are sealed by its power;
’Tis life to the soul,
And is hope every hour.

Refrain

That blood is a fount
Where the vilest may go
And wash till their souls
Shall be whiter than snow.

Refrain

We’re saved by the blood,
Hallelujah again;
We’re saved by the blood,
Hallelujah, Amen.
