WHAT CAN WASH MY SIN AWAY

 KIL’ O LE W’ ESE MI NU – 

YMHB 555

Author: Robert Wadsworth Lowry

Bi a ba so okan wa di otun pelu Oro Olorun, ti a si gba lati ma rin ninu agbara iwa laye Olorun ninu wa, automatically the blood of Jesus removes the stains of our old sins which we have done and makes us clean in our soulish heart, till we can no more remember the guilt of the bad emotion that might have come to us because of sin. (Rom. 12:2; Col. 3:10; Heb. 9:14).

Once we choose to confess our sins, God our father in Heaven is faithful and just to forgive us our sins. The moment we confess our sins, the fellowship with our Heavenly Father will be restored because of His faithfulness to perform His word (I John 1:9; Jer. 1:12; II Tm. 2:13).

We are not forgiven because of the act of our confession but our confession brings the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus on behalf of us on the cross once again before God the father and this are forgiven (I John 2:1-2).

The Author of this Hymn Robert Wadsworth Lowly wrote this poem “Nothing but the blood of Jesus” in 19^th century. Ever since then this Hymn has been a all time favourite Song for the theme of the Blood of Jesus. In this Song we can see clearly that the blood of Jesus was shed on the cross for our pardon, cleansing and wholeness in our spirit, soul and body which has been tainted by sin nature.

Our forefather Adam took one eternal wrong choice when tested by God and the result has been devastating. Sin nature came into all of us to control and destroy us without God and His guidance. (Rom. 5:12). We are not sinners because we sin, we sin because we are sinners. So our sin were washed through His blood in such a way.

Now my Brothers and Sisters, we are completely forgiven of our past (Col. 2:13-14). Praise the Lord!
