[1Pe 1:18] Blood Of Christ, Thy Spotless Lamb, The
The blood of Christ, Thy spotless Lamb,
O God, is all my plea;
Naught else could for my sin atone;
I have no merit of my own,
Which I can bring to Thee.No sacrifice save His Who bore,
My load upon the tree,
No other plea which lips could frame,
No other blood, no other name,
Accepted is by Thee.Since Christ has entered by His blood,
The holiest on high;
By that same hallowed blood stained track,
Thou welcomest the wanderer back,
And biddest me draw nigh.Oh, wondrous cross! Oh precious blood!
Oh death by which I live!
The sinless One, for me made sin,
Doth now His wondrous heart within,
Eternal refuge give.By that blest cross, that cleansing blood,
I know His power to save;
The merits of His work confess,
I stand in Him completely blest,
A conqueror o’er the grave.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[1Pe 1:18] Covered By The Blood
Once in sin’s darkest night I was wand’ring alone;
A stranger to mercy I stood.
But the Savior came nigh
When he heard my faint cry,
And He put my sins under the blood.Refrain
They are covered by the blood;
They are covered by the blood;
My sins are all covered by the blood.
Mine iniquities so vast
Have been blotted out at last,
My sins are all covered by the blood.From the burden I carried now I am set free,
For Jesus has lifted my load.
O the love and the grace I received in its place
When he put my sins under the blood.Refrain
I can ne’er understand why He sought even me,
Why His lifeblood on Calvary flowed.
But sufficient for me,
Since He died on the tree,
He hath put my sins under the blood.Refrain
Now He comes to my heart and removes ev’ry care;
He bears all my cumbering load.
In a pathway replete
With His love are my feet,
Since He put my sins under the blood.Refrain

[1Pe 1:18] Enslaved By Sin And Bound In Chains
Enslaved by sin and bound in chains,
Beneath its dreadful tyrant sway,
And doomed to everlasting pains,
We wretched, guilty captives lay.Nor gold nor gems could buy our peace,
Nor all the world’s collected store
Suffice to purchase our release;
A thousand worlds were all too poor.Jesus, the Lord, the mighty God,
An all sufficient ransom paid.
O matchless price! His precious blood
For vile, rebellious traitors shed.Jesus the Sacrifice became
To rescue guilty souls from hell;
The spotless, bleeding, dying Lamb
Beneath avenging Justice fell.Amazing goodness! Love divine!
Oh, may our grateful hearts adore
The matchless grace nor yield to sin
Nor wear its cruel fetters more!Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[1Pe 1:18] Nor Silver Nor Gold
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption,
Nor riches of earth could have saved my poor soul;
The blood of the cross is my only foundation,
The death of my Savior now maketh me whole.Refrain
I am redeemed, but not with silver,
I am bought, but not with gold;
Bought with a price, the blood of Jesus,
Precious price of love untold.Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption,
The guilt on my conscience too heavy had grown;
The blood of the cross is my only foundation,
The death of my Savior could only atone.Refrain
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption,
The holy commandment forbade me draw near;
The blood of the cross is my only foundation,
The death of my Savior removeth my fear.Refrain
Nor silver nor gold hath obtained my redemption,
The way into Heaven could not thus be bought;
The blood of the cross is my only foundation,
The death of my Savior redemption hath wrought.Refrain

[1Pe 1:18] Glory Be To Jesus
Glory be to Jesus,
Who, in bitter pains,
Poured for me the lifeblood
From His sacred veins!Grace and life eternal
In that blood I find;
Blest be His compassion,
Infinitely kind.Blest through endless ages
Be the precious stream
Which from endless torments
Doth the world redeem.There the fainting spirit
Drinks of life her fill;
There as in a fountain
Laves herself at will.O, the blood of Christ! it
Soothes the Father’s ire ;
Opes the gate of Heaven;
Quells eternal fire.Abel’s blood for vengeance
Pleaded to the skies;
But the blood of Jesus
For our pardon cries.Oft as it is sprinkled
On our guilty hearts,
Satan in confusion
Terror struck departs.Oft as earth exulting
Wafts its praise on high,
Angel hosts, rejoicing,
Make their glad reply.Lift we then our voices,
Swell the mighty flood;
Louder still and louder
Praise the precious blood!Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[1Pe 1:19] Washed In The Blood Of My Redeemer
I will praise the Lord for His love to me,
I am washed in the blood of my Redeemer.
In the fount that flows from the Cross so free,
I am washed in the blood of my Redeemer.Refrain
Glory, glory, glory to the Lamb,
I am saved from sin and He makes me what I am;
Oh, glory, glory, glory to the Lamb,
I am washed in the blood of my Redeemer.I am saved by grace, and to Him brought near,
I am washed in the blood of my Redeemer.
I would sing so loud that the world might hear,
I am washed in the blood of my Redeemer.Refrain
What a constant peace in my heart I feel,
I am washed in the blood of my Redeemer.
There’s a holy joy I can ne’er reveal,
I am washed in the blood of my Redeemer.Refrain
I will lift my voice while on earth I stay,
I am washed in the blood of my Redeemer.
Then my soul shall sing in the realms of day,
I am washed in the blood of my Redeemer.Refrain

[1Pe 1:21] As Shadows Cast By Cloud And Sun
As shadows cast by cloud and sun
Flit o’er the summer grass,
So, in Thy sight, Almighty One,
Earth’s generations pass.
And as the years, an endless host,
Come swiftly pressing on,
The brightest names that earth can boast
Just glisten and are gone.Yet doth the star of Bethlehem shed
A luster pure and sweet;
And still it leads, as once it led,
To the Messiah’s feet.
O Father, may that holy star
Grow every year more bright,
And send its glorious beams afar
To fill the world with light.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[1Pe 1:24] See, Another Year Is Gone
See! another year is gone!
Quickly have the seasons passed!
This we enter now upon
May to many prove our last.
Mercy hitherto has spared,
But have mercies been improved?
Let us ask, am I prepared
Should I be this year removed?Some we now no longer see,
Who their mortal race have run;
Seemed as fair for life as we,
When the former year begun;
Some, but who God only knows,
Who are here assembled now,
Ere the present year shall close,
To the stroke of death must bow.Life a field of battle is,
Thousands fall within our view;
And the next death-bolt that flies,
May be sent to me or you:
While we preach, and while we hear,
Help us, Lord, each one, to think,
Vast eternity is near,
I am standing on the brink.If from guilt and sin set free,
By the knowledge of Thy grace;
Welcome, then, the call will be
To depart and see Thy face:
To Thy saints, while here below,
With new years, new mercies come;
But the happiest year they know
Is their last, which leads them home.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[1Pe 1:25] Oh, Wonderful Word!
Oh, wonderful, wonderful Word of the Lord!
True wisdom its pages unfold;
And though we may read them a thousand times o’er,
They never, no never, grow old!
Each line hath a treasure, each promise a pearl,
That all if they will may secure;
And we know that when time and the world pass away,
God’s Word shall forever endure.Oh, wonderful, wonderful Word of the Lord!
The lamp that our Father above
So kindly has lighted to teach us the way
That leads to the arms of His love!
Its warnings, its counsels, are faithful and just;
Its judgments are perfect and pure;
And we know that when time and the world pass away,
God’s Word shall forever endure.Oh, wonderful, wonderful Word of the Lord!
Our only salvation is there;
It carries conviction down deep in the heart,
And shows us ourselves as we are.
It tells of a Savior, and points to the cross,
Where pardon we now may secure;
For we know that when time and the world pass away,
God’s Word shall forever endure.Oh, wonderful, wonderful Word of the Lord!
The hope of our friends in the past;
Its truth, where so firmly they anchored their trust,
Through ages eternal shall last.
Oh, wonderful, wonderful Word of the Lord!
Unchanging, abiding and sure;
For we know that when time and the world pass away,
God’s Word shall forever endure.Play source: Cyberhymnal
