1. Christ our Redeemer died on the cross, Died for the sinner, paid all his due; Sprinkle your soul with the blood of the Lamb, And I will pass, will pass over you.
Refrain: When I see the blood, When I see the blood, When I see the blood, I will pass, I will pass over you.
2. Chiefest of sinners, Jesus will save; As He has promised, that He will do; Wash in the fountain opened for sin, And I will pass, will pass over you.
3. Judgment is coming, all will be there, Each one receiving justly his due; Hide in the saving sin-cleansing blood, And I will pass, will pass over you.
4. O great compassion! O boundless love! O loving-kindness, faithful and true! Find peace and shelter under the blood, And I will pass, will pass over you.
