Thank you Jesus for the Blood


by Charity Gayle, Ryan Kennedy, Steven Musso,David Gentiles, Bryan McCleery

Stanza 1
I was a wretch, I remember who I was
I was lost, I was blind, I was running out of time.
Sin separated, the breach was far too wide
But from the far side of the chasm, You had me in Your sight

Stanza 2
So You made a way, across the great divide
Left behind, Heaven’s throne, to build it here inside
There at the cross You paid the debt I owed
Broke my chains, Freed my soul and for the first time I had Hope

CHORUS
Thank You Jesus, for the blood applied
Thank You Jesus, it has washed me white
Thank You Jesus, You have saved my life
Brought me from the darkness into glorious light

Stanza 3
You took my place, laid inside my tomb of sin
You were buried for three days but then You walked right out again
Now death has no sting and life has no end
For I have been transformed by the blood of the Lamb

BRIDGE
There is nothing stronger
Than the wonder working power of the blood the blood
That calls us sons and daughters
We are ransomed by our Father
Through the blood
There is nothing stronger
OH the wonder working power of the blood the blood
That calls us sons and daughters
We are ransomed by our Father
Through the Blood
The Blood
