I See a Crimson Stream

Verse 1

On Cal’vry’s hill of sorrow Where sin’s demands were paid, And rays of hope for tomorrow Across our path were laid.

Chorus

I see a crimson stream of blood, It flows from Calvary, Its waves which reach the throne of God, Are sweeping over me.

Verse 2

Today no condemnation Abides to turn away My soul from His salvation, He’s in my heart to stay.

Verse 3

When gloom and sadness whisper You’ve sinned, no use to pray, I look away to Jesus, And He tells me to say:

Verse 4

And when we reach the portal Where life forever reigns, The ransomed hosts grand final, Will be this glad refrain.
