126. His Blood is Dropping Down

1 Upon the cross our Saviour died,
On Calv'ry's brow was crucified;
See from His hands, His feet, His side,
His blood is dropping down.

Chorus:
His blood is dropping, dropping down,
His blood is dropping, dropping down,
O sinner get beneath the Cross,
His blood is dropping down.

2 For you the thorns once pierced His brow,
He drank the cup we know not how;
And for salvation even now,
His blood is dropping down. [Chorus]

3 O sinner come to Him today
For He hath told you that you may;
He'll wash your guilt and sin away,
His blood is dropping down. [Chorus]

4 No longer then be tempest toss'd,
In Jesus rest, He paid the cost;
And that your soul may not be lost,
His blood is dropping down. [Chorus]
