Five bleeding wounds He bears, Received on Calvary; They pour effectual prayers; They strongly speak for me. Forgive him, O forgive, they cry, Nor let that ransomed sinner die! Nor let that ransomed sinner die!

The Father hears Him pray, His dear anointed One; He cannot turn away The presence of His Son. His Spirit answers to the blood, And tells me I am born of God. And tells me I am born of God.

To God I’m reconciled, His pardoning voice I hear; He owns me for His child, I can no longer fear. With confidence I now draw nigh, And Father, Abba, Father, cry. And Father, Abba, Father, cry.

Arise my soul! Yes, wake up arise! I am no longer bothered by past sins. No matter what they are. I see the blood it cleansed me and is cleansing me. It is sprinkled before the throne. Now God only sees his son. I can come boldly to him. Oh we must see the blood. It speaks for us. It speaks volumes and covers all. I’m reconciled and pardoned. I am a child of God!
