Thank God for the Blood

Composer: Garfield Haywood, 1919

In sin I wan­dered sore and sad

With bleed­ing heart and ach­ing head

Till Je­sus came and sweet­ly said

I’ll take thy sins away.

Thank God for the blood!

Thank God for the blood!

Thank God for the blood

That wash­es white as snow.

I gave my heart

my life

my all

To Him who drank the cup of gall

To raise the guil­ty from the fall

And take their sins away.

The wa­ter

Spir­it and the blood

Agree

if we but un­der­stood

In mak­ing sin­ners pure and good

And take their sins away.

How won­der­ful God’s migh­ty plan!

How grace the aw­ful guilt did span

When He took on the form of man

To take our sins away.

We can­not know

we may not tell

How we are saved from death and hell;

Thru faith we know that all is well—

He took our sins away.
