Lutheran Hymnal: 069 - Glory be to Jesus

1 Glory be to Jesus Who in bitter pains Poured for me the lifeblood From His sacred veins. 2 Grace and life eternal In that blood I find; Blest be His compassion, Infinitely kind! 3 Blest through endless ages Be the precious stream Which from endless torments Did the world redeem! 4 Abel’s blood for vengeance Pleaded to the skies; But the blood of Jesus For our pardon cries. 5 Oft as earth exulting Wafts its praise on high, Angel hosts rejoicing Make their glad reply. 6 Lift we then our voices, Swell the mighty flood; Louder still, and louder, Praise the precious blood!
