This hymn has a unique tune

 
 1 

I hear Thy welcome voice,

That calls me, Lord, to Thee,

For cleansing in Thy precious blood

That flowed on Calvary.

 

I am coming, Lord,

Coming now to Thee:

Wash me, cleanse me in the blood

That flowed on Calvary.

 
 2 

Though coming weak and vile,

Thou dost my strength assure;

Thou dost my vileness fully cleanse,

Till spotless all, and pure.

 

I am coming, Lord,

Coming now to Thee:

Wash me, cleanse me in the blood

That flowed on Calvary.

 
 3 

'Tis Jesus who confirms

The blessed work within,

By adding grace to welcomed grace,

Where reigned the power of sin.

 

I am coming, Lord,

Coming now to Thee:

Wash me, cleanse me in the blood

That flowed on Calvary.

 
 4 

And He the witness gives

To loyal hearts and free,

That every promise is fulfilled,

If faith but brings the plea.

 

I am coming, Lord,

Coming now to Thee:

Wash me, cleanse me in the blood

That flowed on Calvary.

 
 5 

All hail, redeeming blood!

All hail, life-giving grace!

All hail, the gift of Christ our Lord,

Our strength and righteousness.

 

I am coming, Lord,

Coming now to Thee:

Wash me, cleanse me in the blood

That flowed on Calvary.
