About this Hymn
Leviticus 17:11 tells us, "The life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it for you on the altar to make atonement for your souls." Jesus would become the final, permanent atonement for us (1 Pet. 1:18–19; Heb. 10:10), and because of that sacrifice we have victory over death and evil (Heb. 2:14; Rev. 12:11).
Lyrics
Verse 1
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?
Chorus
There's wonderful pow'r in the blood. There is pow'r, pow'r, wonder-working pow'r in the blood of the Lamb; there is pow'r, pow'r, wonder-working pow'r in the precious blood of the Lamb.
Verse 2
Would you be free from your passion and pride? There's pow'r in the blood, pow'r in the blood; come for a cleansing to Calvary's tide;
Verse 3
Would you be whiter, much whiter than snow? There's pow'r in the blood, pow'r in the blood; sin stains are lost in its life-giving flow;
Verse 4
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?
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?
Chorus
There's wonderful pow'r in the blood. There is pow'r, pow'r, wonder-working pow'r in the blood of the Lamb; there is pow'r, pow'r, wonder-working pow'r in the precious blood of the Lamb.
Verse 2
Would you be free from your passion and pride? There's pow'r in the blood, pow'r in the blood; come for a cleansing to Calvary's tide;
Verse 3
Would you be whiter, much whiter than snow? There's pow'r in the blood, pow'r in the blood; sin stains are lost in its life-giving flow;
Verse 4
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?
