CRIMSON TIDE

Crimson tide; flowing wide
Plunging deep within
The rising flood of Jesus' blood
It cleansed my soul from sin
At the cross; see the loss
Of that crimson flow
From Jesus' side; gaping wide
From a sword's cruel blow

Chorus

Blood of the Lamb; cleansed I am
It washed my sins away
Crimson tide; flowing wide
Sinners bathe in it today

His hands impaled and roughly nailed
To that centre tree
Thorn crowned head; dripping red
And there He died for me
He arose again; so that we then
May know the cleansing purge
Of blood drops red; that were shed
And from His side did surge

Colin Moffett
A good friend of mine; Martin Moore; composed the tune
for this poem and recorded it on a Gospel CD of his
called "THE PERFECT GIFT"
