Nothing but the Blood
Words & Music: Robert Lowry (1826-1899) and William Doane (1832-1915)
VERSE 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.
VERSE 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.
REFRAIN:
VERSE 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.
REFRAIN:
VERSE 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.
REFRAIN:
VERSE 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.
REFRAIN:
VERSE 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.
