When I See the Blood

Christ our Redeemer died on the cross,

Died for the sinner, paid all his due.

Sprinkle your soul with the blood of the Lamb,

And I will pass, will pass over you.

Refrain:

When I see the blood, when I see the blood,

When I see the blood, I will pass, I will pass over you.

Chiefest of sinners, Jesus will save;

All He has promised, that He will do.

Wash in the fountain opened for sin,

And I will pass, will pass over you.

Judgment is coming, all will be there,

Each one receiving justly his due.

Hide in the saving, sin cleansing blood,

And I will pass, will pass over you.

O great compassion! O boundless love!

O loving kindness, faithful and true!

Find peace and shelter under the blood,

And I will pass, will pass over you.
