Happy in Jesus my Lord;
I count the vain treasures of earth as but loss,
Under the precious blood.
Refrain:
Under the blood, under the blood,
Heaven so freely gave;
Under the blood, under the blood,
Blood of the Mighty to save.
2 I’m under the blood of the crucified One,
Saved from the power of sin;
Rejoicing in glory the victory won,
Under the precious blood. [Refrain]
3 I’m under the blood that was shed on the tree,
Cleansed in the river divine;
I’m sanctified wholly, forever to be
Under the precious blood. [Refrain]
4 I’m under the blood that preserves from all sin,
Walking in wonderful light;
Soon heaven will open to welcome me in,
Under the precious blood. [Refrain]
5 I’m under the blood, and to Jesus I bring
Honor and glory divine;
Soon with the redeemed of all ages I’ll sing,
Saved by the precious blood.
