Mercy Speaks by Jesu’s Blood

Mercy speaks by Je­su’s blood

Hear and sing

ye sons of God

Justice sa­tis­fied indeed

Christ hath full atone­ment made.

Jesu’s blood speaks loud and sweet

Here all Dei­ty can meet

And with­out a jar­ring voice

Welcome Zi­on to re­joice.

Should the law against her roar

Jesu’s blood still speaks with pow­er;

All her debts were cast on Me

And she must and shall go free.

Peace of con­sci­ence

peace with God

We ob­tain through Je­su’s blood;

Jesu’s blood speaks sol­id rest

We be­lieve

and we are blest.

When the blood of sprink­ling cries

Clouds are ban­ished from the skies;

Every at­trib­ute di­vine

In their great­est glo­ry shine.

Jesu’s blood speaks life and pow­er

And in ev­ery try­ing hour

Trusting this al­migh­ty voice

Zion must and shall re­joice.

Would the Christ­ian walk in love

Circumspect and god­ly prove

Then be this his con­stant aim

On the blood of Christ to lean.

Here’s his strength to will and do

And what­ev­er he goes through

This should be his on­ly plea

Jesu’s blood was shed for me.

O ye wretch­ed sin­ners base

Sunk in sin and sad dis­grace;

Hear the blood of sprink­ling cry

Come

and you shall nev­er die.
