1When I see the blood, When I see the blood,
When I see the blood, I will pass, I will pass o ver you.
RefrainWhen I see the blood, When I see the blood,
When I see the blood, I will pass, will pass o ver you.
2Chief est of sin ners though you be,
Sink not in de spair;
There's a foun tain filled for you,
Wash and en ter there.
3Judg ment can not reach you there,
Guilt y though you be;
Par don, peace, and life are yours,
Je sus died for thee.
4"When I see the blood," "When I see the blood,"
When he sees the blood of his Son up on the heart,
When he sees the blood, Sin ner, thou art free;
When he sees the blood, He will pass, will pass o ver thee.
