Ki Lo Le Wese Mi Nu

-
Robert Lowry, pub.1876

Ki lo le wese mi nu?
Ko si lehin eje Jesu;
Ki lo tun le wo mi san?
Ko si lehin eje Jesu.

Refrain:
A! Eje 'yebiye
To mu mi fun bi sno,
Ko sisun miran mo,
Ko si lehin eje Jesu.

Fun 'wenumo mi, nko ri,
Nkan mi lehin eje Jesu;
Ohun ti mo gbekele
Fun 'dariji, leje Jesu.

Etutu fese ko si,
Ko si lehin eje Jesu
Ise rere kan ko si
Ko si lehin eje Jesu

Gbogbo igbekele mi,
Ireti mi leje Jesu;
Gbogbo ododo mi ni
Eje, kiki eje Jesu.

Source: Yoruba Baptist Hymnal #23 		What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

For my pardon, this I see,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
For my cleansing this my plea,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Nothing can for sin atone,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
Naught of good that I have done,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

This is all my hope and peace,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
This is all my righteousness,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Now by this I’ll overcome—
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
Now by this I’ll reach my home—
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Glory! Glory! This I sing—
Nothing but the blood of Jesus,
All my praise for this I bring—
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

I’m pressing on the upward way, New heights I’m gaining every day; Still praying as I onward bound, “Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.” Refrain: Lord, lift me up, and let me stand By faith on Canaan’s tableland; A higher plane than I have found, Lord, plant my feet on higher ground. My heart has no desire to stay Where doubts arise and fears dismay; Though some may dwell where these abound, My prayer, my aim, is higher gr...
