196 I WILL PRAISE HIM (D)

---

When I saw the cleansing fountain Open wide for all my sin, I obeyed the spirit’s wooing When He said, “Wilt thou be clean?”

Chorus

I will praise Him, I will praise Him, Praise the Lamb for sinners slain; Give Him glory all ye people, For His blood can wash away each stain.

Though the way seemed straight and narrow, All I claimed was swept away My ambitions, plans, and wishes At my feet in ashes lay.

Chorus

I will praise Him, I will praise Him, Praise the Lamb for sinners slain; Give Him glory all ye people, For His blood can wash away each stain.

Then God’s fire upon the altar Of my heart was set aflame; I shall never cease to praise Him. Glory! glory to His name!

Chorus

I will praise Him, I will praise Him, Praise the Lamb for sinners slain; Give Him glory all ye people, For His blood can wash away each stain.

Blessed be the name of Jesus! I’m so glad He took me in; He’s forgiven my transgressions He has cleansed my heart from sin.

Chorus

I will praise Him, I will praise Him, Praise the Lamb for sinners slain; Give Him glory all ye people, For His blood can wash away each stain.
