Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing pow’r

1
Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing pow’r?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
  Are you washed in the blood,
In the soul-cleansing blood of the Lamb?
Are your garments spotless? Are they white as snow?
  Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
2
Are you walking daily by the Savior’s side?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Do you rest each moment in the Crucified?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
3
When the Bridegroom cometh will your robes be white!
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Will your soul be ready for His presence bright,
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb?
4
Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin,
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb;
There’s a fountain flowing for the soul unclean,
O be washed in the blood of the Lamb.

1John 1:7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

Revelation 1:5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood,

"The souls and consciences of men are wholly polluted, before they are purged by the blood of Christ."--John Owen, Exposition of Hebrews 9:14

Yes, our consciences are clean because our souls have indeed been washed with the blood of the Lamb.

The blood cleanses your conscience not you soul, no where in the bible will you find it cleanses your soul.

"How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God?" - Hebrews 9:14

Good to substitute the word soul for sin in this hymn:

Are you washed in the blood,

In the sin-cleansing blood of the Lamb?

Are your garments spotless? Are they white as snow?

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

There's so much peace in surrendering yourself to Jesus and allowing yourself to be cleansed by the blood of the Lamb. Children of the Kingdom of light, I plead with all of us that we continue offer prayers unto God for them that still live on in sin that they also may come to the full understanding of the words of this hymn and surrender to God.

Hello all. Each time we sing this hymn there's need to note that the Chorus is full of Questions begging for Answers.

Are you really washed in the blood of the Lamb of God that took away the sin of the world? If not, the only appropriate thing to do is to go on your knees and ask the blood of Jesus Christ to wash you clean from your sin.

You will acknowledge your sins before Him and ask Him for forgiveness. You will ask him to come and be your Lord and Saviour. Ask Him to write your name in the Book of Life. Ask Him to give you His Holy Spirit by whom you can live a life devoid of sin. Then, start to live this New Life by reading your Bible and meditating in its contents, praying, singing hymns and fellowshiping with other Christians who have genuinely done what you have just done.

You will also need to stay away from your old friends who are still held up in sin and are not ready to come to Jesus. They could draw you back whilst you are still young in the way.

God bless you.

What a gracious God who gave us His best in Jesus to cleanse us from our filth. Thank You so much Heavenly Father.

Question: Is it accurate to say that the blood cleanses our soul?

Answer: One of the hymns we sing refers to the "soul-cleansing blood." The redeeming blood cleanses us from any sin or defilement. It is probably better to avoid using this term in ordinary talk, though I would not say that it is wrong. The soul means the self. The blood does cleanse us from our sins, but we do not need to call it the "soul-cleansing" blood. In our writings we try to stay away from any questionable terminology. We don't condemn what others use, but we don't necessarily adopt their terms either.
