Heir of the Covenant
 

This hymn is pretty self-explanatory.  But, I hope it helps you to trust more and more in the blood of Jesus, and less and less in yourself or something else.  Only Jesus can make us whole, only Jesus can take away our sins, only by Jesus can we overcome Satan and sin, only Jesus can give us real hope and peace.  I hope you go through this hymn slowly and consider how much we need Jesus.  Without Him, all hope is lost.  Enjoy!

1. What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Refrain
Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

2. For my pardon, this I see,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
For my cleansing this my plea,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

3. Nothing can for sin atone,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
Naught of good that I have done,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Refrain
Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

4. This is all my hope and peace,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
This is all my righteousness,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

5. Now by this I’ll overcome--
Nothing but the blood of Jesus,
Now by this I’ll reach my home--
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

6. Glory! Glory! This I sing--
Nothing but the blood of Jesus,
All my praise for this I bring--
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Refrain
Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

This is yet another great one. The repetetiveness of it really gets it into your head that NOTHING but the blood of Jesus can save us.

    Every month, I will be posting the lyrics of a hymn as the new Hymn of the Month.  I hope you will read it and try to apply it...hymns are such a blessing, let's not let them go to waste.  My dad suggested something to me.  He said whenever you're down or are facing a temptation, start to sing...so I sing hymns.  There are different types of hymns.  Some for praising God, some about the nature of God, and some about how God relates to His people.  I bet you there is a good hymn for any sort of situation you are in, so I hope the ones I put up here every month will be helpful.  Feel free to comment on any of these hymns and share any insight that you might have.
