Lyrics
Would you be free from the burden of sin
There’s pow’r in the Blood, pow’r in the Blood
Would you o’er evil a victory win
There’s wonderful pow’r in the Blood
There is pow’r, pow’r, wonder working pow’r
In the Blood of the Lamb
Yes there is pow’r, pow’r, wonder working pow’r
In the precious Blood of the Lamb
Would you do service for Jesus your King
There’s pow’r in the Blood, pow’r in the Blood
Would you live daily His praises to sing
There’s wonderful pow’r in the Blood
