The Story of Cleansing

Author: Beulah Hymnal: Melodious Sonnets #79 (1885) First Line: 'Tis a story oft repeated Refrain First Line: Able to save to the uttermost Lyrics: 1 ‘Tis a story oft repeated, but it never can grow old, The story of the blood that makes us clean; ‘Tis the sweetest story ears have heard of lips have ever told, The blood of Jesus cleanseth from all sin. Refrain: Able to save to the uttermost, He offers us cleansing, and oh, it is free! Wondrous salvation! it saves even me! Washed in the blood of the Lamb. 2 How it rings thro’ earth and heaven, sung by ransomed choirs above, Who by its power o’ercame and were made clean; How ‘tis echoed by the pure of earth, sav’d by redeeming love; The blood of Jesus cleanseth from all sin. [Refrain] 3 As I listen to the message, how it thrills me with delight; The fountain now is open, enter in; Whosoever will may venture in and wash his garments white; The blood of Jesus cleanseth from all sin. [Refrain] 4 Then why should I tarry longer? Jesus’ call I will obey; I come, I wash, the promised rest I win, I will trust his power to keep me clean each moment, ev’ry day; The blood of Jesus cleanseth from all sin. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [‘Tis a story oft repeated, but it never can grow old]
