Words and Music by Robert Lowry

VERSE 1

G             D G 
What can wash away my sin?

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

              D  G 
What can make me whole again?

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

        D    G            
Oh! precious is the flow 

D7         G  D        G 
That makes me white as snow;

      D  G 
No other fount I know,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

VERSE 2

G         D    G 
For my pardon, this I see,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

             D    G 
For my cleansing, this my plea,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

        D    G            
Oh! precious is the flow 

D7         G  D        G 
That makes me white as snow;

      D  G 
No other fount I know,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

VERSE 3

G           D   G 
Nothing can for sin atone,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

               D    G 
Naught of good that I have done,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

        D    G            
Oh! precious is the flow 

D7         G  D        G 
That makes me white as snow;

      D  G 
No other fount I know,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

VERSE 4

G           D  G 
This is all my hope and peace,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

            D  G 
This is all my righteousness,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

        D    G            
Oh! precious is the flow 

D7         G  D        G 
That makes me white as snow;

      D  G 
No other fount I know,

                         D7 G 
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
