Would you be free from your burden of sin?
  There’s power in the blood, power in the blood;
Would you o’er evil a victory win?
  There’s wonderful power in the blood.
 
There is power, power, wonder-working power,
  In the blood of the Lamb;
There is power, power, wonder-working power,
    In the precious blood of the Lamb.

Would you be free from your passion and pride?
  There’s power in the blood, power in the blood;
Come for a cleansing to Calvary’s tide,
  There’s wonderful power in the blood.

Would you be whiter, much whiter than snow?
  There’s power in the blood, power in the blood;
To become holy as Christ by this flow?
  There’s wonderful power in the blood.
4
Would you receive full salvation today?
There’s power in the blood, power in the blood.
Gain life eternal’s blest portion for aye?
There’s wonderful power in the blood.
5
To expunge sins, this blest fountain’s the way;
There’s power in the blood, power in the blood;
Quickly plunge in, and they’ll all fall away;
There’s wonderful power in the blood.

Would you be whiter, much whiter than snow?

There’s power in the blood, power in the blood;

To become holy as Christ by this flow?

There’s wonderful power in the blood.

Through the blood have the forgiveness of sin and we can have boldness to enterin the holy of holies. The blood cleanses us but does not change our fallen nature. For that we need the cross. By the operation of the cross and Christ’s resurrection life we can experience transformation and be saved to the uttermost. The greatest power is in the cross of Jesus. It deals with our old man Adam.

1 Cor. 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
