1. O mourner in Zion, how blessed art thou,
For Jesus is waiting to comfort thee now;
Fear not to rely on the word of thy God,
Step out on the promise,—get under the blood.

2. O ye that are hungry and thirsty, rejoice!
For ye shall be filled; do you hear that sweet voice
Inviting you now to the banquet of God?
Step out on the promise,—get under the blood.

3. Who sighs for a heart from iniquity free?
O poor troubled soul! there’s a promise for thee;
There’s rest, weary one, in the bosom of God;
Step out on the promise,—get under the blood.

4. The promise don’t save, tho’ the promise is true;
‘Tis blood we get under, that cleanses us through:
It cleanses me now, hallelujah to God!
I rest on the promise,—I’m under the blood.
