Sheet music

  1. 1Unto the shade of the crimson cross,Seeking for cleansing of stain and dross;Counting the pleasures of sin but loss,Jesus, I come, I come to Thee.Blessed Lamb of Calvary,I come to Thee, to Thee;Only Thy blood can cleanse the soul,Jesus, I come, I come to Thee.
  2. 2Thirsty and weary, by sin oppressed,Wand’ring from God without peace or rest,Pleading for refuge upon Thy breast,Jesus, I come, I come to Thee.Blessed Lamb of Calvary,I come to Thee, to Thee;Only Thy blood can cleanse the soul,Jesus, I come, I come to Thee.
  3. 3Naught for Thy glory have I to bring,Just to be near Thee and to Thee cling,Shelter beneath Thy unfolded wing,Jesus, I come, I come to Thee.Blessed Lamb of Calvary,I come to Thee, to Thee;Only Thy blood can cleanse the soul,Jesus, I come, I come to Thee.
