Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: It was the Saviour's precious blood Refrain First Line: Wonderful keeping power, glorious keeping power Lyrics: 1 It was the Saviour’s precious blood That cleansed my soul, that cleansed my soul ‘Tis still the precious healing flood That keeps me fully whole. Refrain: Wonderful keeping power, glorious keeping power, I’m abiding in the fountain that flows so full and free, Wonderful keeping power, glorious keeping power, The blood now cleanseth me. 2 No power have I my feet to keep Within the way, within the way; But Jesus knows my feeble frame And saves me day by day. [Refrain] 3 I cannot tell how I am saved By blood alone, by blood alone; Nor how it is my soul he keeps But this I know, ’tis done. [Refrain] 4 With jealous care and watchful eye He guards his own, he guards his own; No power can snatch them from his hand Who trust in God alone. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [It was the Saviour's precious blood]
