Ephesians 2:13
"But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were
far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ."
NO MIDI AVAILABLE
Once I wandered in sin's black night
And there was no way I could make my wrongs right.
Then that old accuser to the Lord did cry,
He is a sinner and now he must die.
Chorus
And it's still the blood that saves from sin;
It's still the blood that cleanses within,
From the highest star in heaven, to the depths of the sea,
It is still the blood of Jesus that brings vict'ry to me.
Then I heard a voice saying, "Father, I'll go.
I'll pay his sin-debt in Calv'ry's flow.
I'll bear in my body the marks of the cross
To save that child who is sin-sick and lost."
Chorus
And it's still the blood that saves from sin;
It's still the blood that cleanses within,
From the highest star in heaven, to the depths of the sea,
It is still the blood of Jesus that brings vict'ry to me.
There are those who rely on the works that they do,
And some men count on the times they pray through.
But when the battle's over and my last song is sung.
I'll go home through the blood of my Father's precious Son.
Chorus
And it's still the blood that saves from sin;
It's still the blood that cleanses within,
From the highest star in heaven, to the depths of the sea,
It is still the blood of Jesus that brings vict'ry to me.
