On the cru­el cross they nailed Him,
There to die in ago­ny;
But He gave His life a ran­som,
Just to set sin’s cap­tives free.

Refrain

When He shed His blood,
When He shed His blood,
Then He ran­somed me
For eter­ni­ty,
When He shed His blood.

In His love He came to suf­fer,
All the fall­en to re­deem;
Mercy’s of­fer still is op­en,
Still there’s life in Cal­va­ry’s stream.

Refrain

In our­selves we mer­it no­thing,
All our works must be in vain;
Only through the blood of Je­sus,
Can we life eter­nal gain.

Refrain

What a won­der­ful sal­va­tion!
What a depth of love is shown,
In the sac­ri­fice of Je­sus,
In the blood that does atone.
