Peace-Speaking Blood

When the darkness draws nigh And doubt and fear assail

When depression rages And your faith seems to fail

As you pray for endurance and for wisdom and peace

There is one who will faithfully cure and release

Infinite love gives rise

To infinite praise

For the one who in dying

Puts all my transgressions away

So seek to realize with all your heart

Now in the Lord place your trust

To know anew the power of peace

In the peace-speaking blood of Jesus.

For within His wounds our only true healing is found

It was for us he bled and wore a thorny crown

And we will find no better cure

Than the one who can cleanse and make us pure

Infinite love gives rise

To infinite praise

For the one who in dying

Put all my transgressions away

So seek to realize with all your heart

Now in the Lord place your trust

To know anew the power of peace

In the peace-speaking blood of Jesus.

Oh the peace-speaking blood

For His glory and our good

Redemption’s full release

The fruit of righteous peace

After a quote from Spurgeon
