1. Blessed stream from Calv’ry’s hill,
Flowing freely, flowing still,
Plunge me, Lord, beneath the tide,
Flowing from thy riven side.
Chorus:
Precious blood of Calvary,
Shed for many, shed for me;
This my all availing plea,
Jesus shed his blood for me.
2. Shed, to take my sins away,
Shed, to cleanse me day by day;
Sprinkling now the mercy-seat,
There I find communion sweet.
3. Tho’ the whole wide world should come,
At this fountain there is room;
Millions at the cross I see,
Yet he makes a place for me.
4. When with all the saints above,
Saved, I sing redeeming love,
Still the blood my theme shall be,
Shed for many, shed for me.
