“My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad."—Ps. 34:2.
A SINNER once, of deepest dye,
Defiled without, within;
Now, spotless in God's holy eye,
I'm cleansed from every sin.
Precious blood of Jesus,
The Son of God eternal!
Oh! the blood of Jesus!
It cleanseth from all sin.
In doubt and dread, in fear and shame,
I dare not then draw near;
But Jesus has declared God's name,
And cast out every fear.
Changeless love of Jesus!
The love of God in Jesus;
Oh! the love of Jesus!
It casts out every fear.
With foes and snares on every hand
Apart from Him I fail,
But in His strength I boldly stand,
Though hell and earth assail.
Mighty power of Jesus!
The risen-power of Jesus!
Oh! The power of Jesus,
Almighty Lord of all!
Made fit for endless bliss on high,
Accepted in Him there,
Soon, in the twinkling of an eye,
We'll meet Him in the air.
Blessed Hope! He's coming;
Yea, surely, quickly coining;
Joy of joys! we're going
To meet Him in the air.
