(I woke up with this old hymn in my head, but with a different tune and some new words that I combined with the old ones….I like the new tune and rhythm better than the old one 🙂 No offense, Robert Lowry! Of course, no one else can vote on that verdict since it’s still only in my head :-))
Matthew 26:28 – This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
What can wash away my sin
What can make me whole again
What can cleanse the soul within
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the precious blood of Jesus
For my pardon, this I see
For my cleansing this my plea
Only one thing rescued me
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the precious blood of Jesus
Chorus:
Blood so red ……. it made me white
Changed my darkness…… into light
Took the wrong…… and made it right
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the precious blood of Jesus
This is all my hope and peace
This is all my righteousness
Offers mercy, offers grace
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the precious blood of Jesus
Now by this I’ll overcome
Now by this I’ll reach my home
Where all eternal hope is from
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the precious blood of Jesus
Chorus:
Blood so red ……. it made me white
Changed my darkness…… into light
Took the wrong…… and made it right
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the precious blood of Jesus
