598 ~ O Now I See the Crimson Wave

1

Oh now I see the crimson wave, The fountain deep and wide; Jesus, my Lord, mighty to save, Points to His wounded side.


Refrain

The cleansing stream I see, I see, I plunge, and O, it cleanseth me! O praise the Lord! it cleanseth me, It cleanseth me, yes, cleanseth me.

2

I see the new creation rise, I hear the speaking blood; It speaks — polluted nature dies, Sinks 'neath the cleansing flood.

3

I rise to walk in heaven's own light, Above the world and sin; With heart made pure and garments white, And Christ enthroned within.

4

Amazing grace! 'tis heaven below To feel the blood applied, And Jesus, only Jesus, know, My Jesus crucified.
