1. No more a slave in Satan’s pow’r,
By lusts and passions bound,
I have my freedom since the hour
When I the Savior found.
Chorus:
The blood, (The blood, the blood,) the blood (the precious blood)
From sin hath made me free (pure and free);
The blood, (The blood, the blood,) the blood (the precious blood)
Christ shed on Calvary.
2. The blood for me on Calv’ry spilt,
Atoning for my sin,
Has freed me from the sense of guilt
That burdened me within.
3. I saw in him my substitute,
Whose merits are divine;
And he those merits did impute,
As though they all were mine.
4. Then came the Spirit’s gracious pow’r,
And pow’r to me he gave;
So, ever since that blessed hour,
I am no more a slave.
