Are You Washed in the Blood?

This has always been one of my favorite hymns, but I hadn't thought about this song for a long time. Then, suddenly, it kept playing and playing in my head and I just couldn't get it out of my mind, so I decided to share it! This song has been a great reminder to me over the years of what we need to do, and what we need to allow the Lord to do in our lives, in order to be washed in the blood of the Lamb and have garments white as snow!

Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing pow'r?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Refrain:
Are you washed in the blood, 
In the soul-cleansing blood of the Lamb?
Are your garments spotless? Are they white as snow?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Are you walking daily by the Savior's side?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Do you rest each moment in the Crucified?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

When the Bridegroom cometh will your robes be white?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright,
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin,
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb;
There's a fountain flowing for the soul unclean,
Oh, be washed in the blood of the Lamb!

~ Elisha A. Hoffman, 1878

These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.  Revelation 7:14
