This hymn has a unique tune

 
 1 

Christ our Redeemer died on the cross,

Died for the sinner, paid all his due;

Sprinkle your soul with the blood of the Lamb,

"And I will pass, will pass over your."

 

"When I see the blood,

When I see the blood,

When I see the blood,

I will pass, I will pass over you."

 
 2 

Chiefest of sinners, Jesus will save;

All He has promised, that will He do;

Wash in the fountain opened for sin,

"And I will pass, will pass over you."

 

"When I see the blood,

When I see the blood,

When I see the blood,

I will pass, I will pass over you."

 
 3 

Judgment is coming, all will be there,

Each one receiving justly his due;

Hide in the saving, sin-cleansing blood,

"And I will pass, will pass over you."

 

"When I see the blood,

When I see the blood,

When I see the blood,

I will pass, I will pass over you."

 
 4 

O great compassion! O boundless love!

O loving kindness, faithful and true!

Find peace and shelter under the blood,

"And I will pass, will pass over you."

 

"When I see the blood,

When I see the blood,

When I see the blood,

I will pass, I will pass over you."
