Blood Of His Covenant

Blood of His Covenant,

Sprinkles down upon us,

Cleanses our filthiness; washes from sin!

Pour down upon our hearts! Flood over our rescued souls!

Seal our great acquittal from all guilt within!

Gone are my stains of guilt;

Gone my deep pollution;

Gone, gone to Calvary; lost in His grave!

There lies my wickedness, forever buried!

Spotless, I adore Him, for all that He gave!

Closed is the great abyss!

Silent, my accuser!

Only Christ's righteousness speaks now for me.

I feel His nail-scarred hand, tenderly washing all!

Loved in the Beloved, O how can this be?

Worship the mystery!

Fall in mute amazement!

Murmur astonished praise there at His feet!

Now breaks my heart of stone; now comes His Spirit;

Now my heart of flesh is quickened to beat.
