1
Glory be to Jesus
Who in bitter pains
Poured for me the lifeblood
From His sacred veins.
2
Grace and life eternal
In that blood I find;
Blest be His compassion,
Infinitely kind!
3
Blest through endless ages
Be the precious stream
Which from endless torments
Did the world redeem!
4
Abel’s blood for vengeance
Pleaded to the skies;
But the blood of Jesus
For our pardon cries.
5
Oft as earth exulting
Wafts its praise on high,
Angel hosts rejoicing
Make their glad reply.
6
Lift we then our voices,
Swell the mighty flood;
Louder still, and louder,
Praise the precious blood!
