Glory be to Jesus,
Who in bitter pains
Poured for me the life-blood
From His sacred veins.

Grace and life eternal
In that Blood I find;
Blest be His compassion,
Infinitely kind.

Blest through endless ages
Be the precious stream,
Which from endless torments
Did the world redeem.
Be the precious stream,
Which from endless torments
Did the world redeem.

Abel's blood for vengeance
Pleaded to the skies;
But the blood of Jesus
For our pardon cries.
Pleaded to the skies;
But the blood of Jesus
For our pardon cries.

It the conscience sprinkles,
Frees our guilty hearts;
Satan in confusion
Terror-struck departs.
Frees our guilty hearts;
Satan in confusion
Terror-struck departs.

Oft as earth exulting
Wafts its praise on high,
Angel-hosts rejoicing
Make their glad reply.
Wafts its praise on high,
Angel-hosts rejoicing
Make their glad reply.

Lift ye then your voices;
Swell the mighty flood;
Louder still and louder
Praise the precious blood.
Swell the mighty flood;
Louder still and louder
Praise the precious blood.

Lovely hymn to sing at the Lord's table. Praising Him for His redemption
Lagos, Nigeria
This one of my dad's favorite Catholic hymn's. His name is Sir Bertrand Igbokwe and he is 104yrs and has an awesome voice even in his old age. He remembered a few lines and I googled the enter hymn and was too happy to get all the lyrics plus the tune.
Dad sang it so many times. Thank you so much and God bless you all Amen.

One of my grandfather's favorites. My mother just told me and sang what she could remember to me. My grandfather loved to sing the hymns. We miss him but have these fond memories. Thank God.
Best song ever!!
