Lyrics to the hymn, There Is Power In The Blood

A forest/field scene


   Introduction 

Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where I prove that I truly am scatterbrained.

Today, we are looking at the lyrics to the hymn by Lewis E. Jones, There Power In The Blood; he wrote in 1899, and it is now published in 347 hymnals.

This song is about how Jesus' blood can wash your sin's away, and cleanse you in His love. 

If you don't know how the tune goes, find Alan Jackson on YouTube; he did a very nice job.

Now, on with the show!

    The Lyrics 

Verse 1 

Would you be free from your burden of sin?

There's pow'e in the blood, power in the blood! 

Would you o'er evil a victory win?

There's wonderful power in the blood! 

Chorus

There is power, power, wonder-working power,

In the blood of the Lamb; 

There is power, power, wonder-working power,

In the precious blood of the Lamb.

Verse 2

Would you be free from your passion and pride?

There's power in the blood, power in the blood!

Come for a cleansing to Calvary's tide;

There's wonderful power in the blood!

Chorus

There is power, power, wonder-working power,

In the blood of the Lamb; 

There is power, power, wonder-working power,

In the precious blood of the Lamb.

Verse 3 

Would you be whiter, much whiter, than snow?

There's power in the blood, power in the blood!

Sin-stains are lost in its life-giving flow,

There's wonderful power in the blood!

Chorus

There is power, power, wonder-working power,

In the blood of the Lamb; 

There is power, power, wonder-working power,

In the precious blood of the Lamb.

Verse 4 

Would you do service for Jesus your King?

There's power in the blood, power in the blood!

Would you live daily His praises to sing?

There's wonderful power in the blood!

Chorus

There is power, power, wonder-working power,

In the blood of the Lamb; 

There is power, power, wonder-working power,

In the precious blood of the Lamb.

Well, that's it! It has a very catchy tune, and it actually rhymes; what a relief.

Believe it or not, it is easier to remember something when it rhymes; keep that in mind if you want to write poems.


If there is anything that you want me to write about, tell me in the comments so that I can help you out.

I update on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Random Chatty Days, so go to past posts if you want to read more.

Goodbye, and God bless.

Introduction  Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where I write the lyrics to hymns, and the occasional recipe. Today, the hymn we are looking at is called This Is My Father's World; it was written in 1901 by a Mr. Maltbie Davenport Babcock. It was originally a poem with sixteen verses, but when it was set to music, only three verses were chosen. A tree and a bush Someday I might do the whole poem, but today, I'm just going to do the three that I know. Let me know if you want me to do the whole poem. Go to YouTube and look up Folksandhymns to find the tune. Now, on with the show! The Lyrics  Verse 1 This is my Father's world; And to my listening ears, All nature sings  And 'round me rings  The music of the spheres. This is my Father's world;  I rest me in the thought Of rocks and trees, Of skies and seas. His hand the wonders wrought. Verse 2 This is my Father's world; The birds, their carols raise. The morning light,  The lily whit

That calls me from a world of care, And bids me at my Father's throne  Make all my wants and wishes known. In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief; And oft' escaped the tempter's snare  By thy return, sweet hour of prayer! Verse 2  Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer! The joys I feel, the bliss I share, Of those whose anxious spirits burn With stro
