Nothing but the Blood of Jesus

Nothing but the Blood of Jesus

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.
   • Refrain:
     Oh! precious is the flow
     That makes me white as snow;
     No other fount I know,
     Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
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.
3. Nothing can for sin atone,
   Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
   Naught of good that I have done,
   Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
4. This is all my hope and peace,
   Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
   This is all my righteousness,
   Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
5. Now by this I’ll overcome—
   Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
   Now by this I’ll reach my home—
   Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
6. Glory! Glory! This I sing—
   Nothing but the blood of Jesus,
   All my praise for this I bring—
   Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

I will try to remember to post the rest of Glen's email in another post.

I posted "Nothing but the Blood of Jesus" because the Lord told me to attend the Upper Room in a nearby town Sunday. I had attended there for years but had stopped attending there about 30 years ago. They sang "Nothing but The Blood of Jesus" during their worship service. I had sat in the back of the church because The Lord often has me overcome with emotion when I worship Him.

I was driven to my knees with thanksgiving and was weeping uncontrollably. The words of this song really touched me deeply. I hope it touches others the same.

The Lord awoke me at 4 AM this morning to pray. I thought of this song and played it again. Hope it touches you as deep as it touched me.
