The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power (1912)

Hymn lyrics by Civilla D. Martin,
Music by Walter S. Martin

Verse 1

• The blood that Jesus once shed for me,
• As my Redeemer, upon the tree;
• The blood that setteth the pris’ner free,
• Will never lose its pow’r.

Chorus

• It will never lose its pow’r,
• It will never lose its pow’r;
• The blood that cleanses from all sin
• Will never lose its pow’r.

Verse 2

• It gives us access to God on high,
• From “far off places” it brings us nigh;
• To precious blessings that never die,
• It will never lose its pow’r.

Chorus

Verse 3

• It is a shelter for rich and poor,
• It is to Heaven the open door;
• The sinner’s merit forevermore,
• It will never lose its pow’r.

Chorus

Verse 4

• And when with all the blood washed throng
• We sing in glory redemption’s song;
• We’ll pass the glorious truth along,
• It has never lost its pow’r.

Chorus
