When I See the Blood

• Christ our Redeemer died on the cross,
• Died for the sinner, paid all his due.
• All who receive Him need never fear,
• Yes, He will pass, will pass over you.

• When I see the blood,
• When I see the blood,
• When I see the blood,
• I will pass, I will pass over you.

• Chiefest of sinners, Jesus will save;
• As He has promised, so He will do;
• Oh, sinner, hear Him, trust in His Word,
• Then He will pass, will pass over you.

• Judgment is coming, all will be there.
• Who have rejected, who have refused?
• Oh, sinner, hasten, let Jesus in,
• Oh, He will pass, will pass over you.

• O great compassion! O boundless love!
• Jesus hath power, Jesus is true;
• All who believe are safe from the storm,
• Oh, He will pass, will pass over you.
