The Grandeur of Forgiveness
Oh, the grandeur of forgiveness
that is found in Jesus' blood,
when he took our sins and nailed them
to the cross- a healing flood!
Oh, the grandeur of forgiveness
that is flowing from the cross,
when with one application he
will wash away all dross!
Oh, the grandeur of forgiveness
that is freely mine to claim,
when I simply look to Jesus,
and I call upon his name!
Oh, the grandeur of forgiveness
that is found in Jesus' blood!
Sweet victory and splendor is
that abundant, blessed flood!
