INDELIBLY WRITTEN IN BLOOD

In the blood of my Saviour
My name's written down
In the Lamb's Book of Life, praise God!
It's not written in pencil;
It can't be erased; —
'Tis indelibly written in blood.

'Tis indelibly written in blood,
Yes, indelibly written in blood;
On record forever, it cannot be erased
For 'tis indelibly written in blood.

Some think it's in pencil,
Still others, in ink,
But both those ideas are flawed,
For the record is permanent
For those who are saved; —
'Tis indelibly written in blood.

In the blood of the Saviour,
God's own precious Lamb,
Lord of lords, King of kings, Son of God,
The names of all saints are forever recorded; —
They are indelibly written in blood.

They are  indelibly written in blood,
Yes, they're indelibly written in blood; —
The names of all saints are forever recorded; —
They are  indelibly written in blood.
