HAIL JESUS HAIL

Hail, Jesus! Hail! who for my sake

Sweet Blood from

Mary’s veins didst take,

And shed it all for me:

O blessed be my Saviour’s Blood,

My life, my light, my only good,

To all eternity.

HAIL JESUS HAIL

To endless ages let us praise

The Precious Blood

whose price could raise

The world from wrath and sin;

Whose streams

our inward thirst appease,

And heal the sinner’s worst disease,

If he but bathe therein.

Frederick William Faber (1814-1863)

HAIL JESUS HAIL

O sweetest Blood,

that can implore

Pardon of God, and heaven restore,

The heaven which sin had lost:

While Abel’s blood

for vengeance pleads,

What Jesus shed still intercedes

For those who wrong him most.

HAIL JESUS HAIL

O to be sprinkled from the wells

Of Christ’s own

sacred Blood, excels

Earth’s best and highest bliss:

The ministers of wrath divine

Hurt not the happy hearts

that shine

With those red drops of His!

HAIL JESUS HAIL

Ah! there is joy amid the Saints,

And hell’s despairing courage faints

When this sweet song we raise:

O louder then, and louder still,

Earth with one mighty chorus fill,

The Precious Blood to praise!
