Let us sing of His love once again,
Of the love that can never decay,
Of the blood of the Lamb who was slain,
Till we praise Him in heaven's bright day.

Refrain:
I believe Jesus saves,
And His blood makes me whiter than snow.
I believe Jesus saves,
And His blood makes me whiter than snow.

There is cleansing and healing for all
Who will wash in the lifegiving flood;
There is perfect deliv'rance and joy
To be had in this world thro' the blood.

Even now, while we taste of His love,
We are filled with delight thro' His name;
But what will it be when, up above,
We shall join in the song of the Lamb?

Then we'll march in His name till we come,
At His bidding, to cease from the fight,
And our Saviour shall welcome us home
To the regions of glory and light.

So with banner unfurled to the breeze,
Then our motto shall "Holiness" be,
Till the crown from His hand we receive,
And the King in His glory we see!
