“Nothing But the Blood” was written by Robert Lowry and published by Howard Doane—two of the heavyweights among post-Civil War American Protestant hymn writers—in 1876. It was often performed by the Old Fashioned Revival Hour Chorus Choir, to which my mother belonged, on its weekly radio program during the middle decades of the twentieth century.
I wish you a happy Thanksgiving.
Thanks for your info on the wonderful hymn. :)
