HIS PERFECT, PRECIOUS BLOOD!
A Simple Song of Experience
“For you know that you were redeemed from your empty way of life inherited from your fathers, not with perishable things like silver or gold, but with the precious Blood of Christ, like that of an unblemished and spotless lamb” 1 Peter 1.18-19 CSB
When I stand before the bar of the Holy God,
and the books are opened that Day –
will I claim as my salvation some good work that I’ve done
or some service I have rendered to pay
for all the sins that I’ve committed and for coming short
of the law and the Glory of God?
Oh, no, I won’t! I’ll have one plea, and He is Jesus Christ
and HIS PERFECT, PRECIOUS BLOOD!
For His Blood has saved me, and ever will – even at that Judgment Day!
For His Blood has cleansed me and made me whole, and has taken my sins away!
By His Blood I’m redeemed, and I’m justified –
Christ perfected my record for me!
God has charged Him with my sin,
and charged me with His righteousness.
I’m a child of God, adopted and free!
And now the law cannot condemn me – it’s demands were met
by the Spotless Lamb of God!
He’s forgiven my transgressions, washed away my stain
by HIS PERFECT, PRECIOUS BLOOD!
For His Blood has saved me, and ever will – even at that Judgment Day!
For His Blood has cleansed me and made me whole, and has taken my sins away!
