Sheet music

  1. 1Would you be freed from your burden of sin?Hear the sweet whisper of pardon within?Would you this moment a new life begin?This is the only way:Come to the cross of the Son of God,Trust in the pow’r of His saving blood,Walk in the path where His feet once trodThis is the only way.
  2. 2Would you have light that no clouds can obscure?Would you have joys that are fadeless and pure?Would you have help that is mighty and sure?This is the only way:Come to the cross of the Son of God,Trust in the pow’r of His saving blood,Walk in the path where His feet once trodThis is the only way.
  3. 3Would you find test in a blessed retreat,Rest undisturbed by the tempests that beat?Would you be ready the judgment to meet?This is the only way:Come to the cross of the Son of God,Trust in the pow’r of His saving blood,Walk in the path where His feet once trodThis is the only way.
