Verse 1: Dear Lord, how precious is Thy blood, Of the New Testament! By it God's blessings we receive, And we with Him are blent. Verse 2: "Tis by Thy blood we've been redeemed, And by it sanctified. Now is our conscience free from sin, From dead works purified. Verse 3: Better than Abel's, now Thy blood Speaks unto God for us. Perfect redemption it provides, Meeting God's righteousness. Verse 4: Through the eternal Spirit, Thou Offeredst Thyself to God. This sacrifice can ne'er grow old; Timeless is Thy dear blood. Verse 5: ’Tis by Thy blood we boldly come Unto the throne of grace, Unto our God, the cov'nant new, And to the Holiest Place. Verse 6: Lord, by Thy blood, God is obliged His very Self to give; He must receive us to Himself, And He in us must live. Verse 7: Dear Lord, how precious is Thy blood Of the New Testament!
