I am searching and searching for the Spanish lyrics to Nothing but the Blood, the older hymn version. The Lord has put this song on my heart for use in our service we hold in Mexico with our mission work.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Luis Espinosa sings basically the contemporary version. La letra se encuentra en http://www.himnariodigital.org/dhymn.cfm?hymnNumber=293
And here's a really rough translation of the Matt Redman version, to start from:
Tu sangre tiene más poder
Que toda vanidad
Acá en esta tierra
Habla justicia por mi (Or 'a mi', there's justification for both.)
Aboga en mi favor
La sangre de Jesús
CHORUS:
¿Qúe nos puede limpiar?
What can make us whole again (see note below)
Sólo la sangre,
Sólo la sangre de Jesús
Somos amigos de Jesús, (thinking John 15:13)
Blancos como la nieve (switched for slightly better syllabling)
Sólo por la sangre,
del Cordero y Rey, Cristo Jesús (The amazing duality!)
Tu cruz, testifica en gracia,
Nos muestra el plan
De abrirnos el camino.
Acercemos sin temor
A tu trono celestial (couldn't fit the contrast ('earthly confidence') in there - sorry)
Sólo por la sangre.
It's really rough and varies things up a little. If someone can tell me what Redman is referring to in "what can make us whole again" then maybe I can have a go at it. Just trying to be faithful to Hebrews (Hebreos), not Redman. And I'm a beginner...
This might be of no help what so ever but I know this song that is a melody of Oh the Blood of Jesus, in Spanish:
Me acerco al santisimo lugar
Con libertad yo llego
Rendido ante su altar
Su Sangre me lavo
Por mi Jesus Sufrio
Vida Abundante el te dara x2
Oh La Sangre Bella Sangre
Oh La Sangre de Jesus
And i know one by a melody sung in one of Azusa Pacific Universities Worship cds that is a Oh the Blood of Jesus Melody in English:
Do you know what the blood has done for me?
Do you know what the blood has done for me?
It has saved me, it has set me free.
Do you know what the blood has done for me?
Thank You Jesus, Thank You Savior
For coming and washing me, coming and saving me and setting me free.
Oh the Blood of Jesus X3
It washes white as snow.
This might help.
And if any one knows who sings these melodies please hit me up!
Blessings,
