Only By the Blood Songtext
von Brian Free & Assurance

How many tonight are thankful for the blood of Jesus?
Amen, I know and listen to our beautiful song

There′s no treasure on earth that could move Heaven's heart
And purchase a pardon for me
No jewels or gems that I′d bring could start
To pay my penalty

Even silver and gold are offerings too poor
To take away guilt, but the truth is, my Lord

That it's only by the blood You poured out for me
It's only by the blood, I could stand redeemed
All the riches of this world could never be enough
To take away one′s sin, it′s only by the blood

It's only by the blood of Jesus Christ
Washing all your sins away
That you can be saved, no other way
Only by the blood of Jesus, Amen?


To the temple they came and the altars ran red
Year after year after year
Yet for all of the loss and all the life shed
Still no true peace was near

′Til You came to us as the one perfect Lamb
The thorns on Your head and nails in Your hands

And it's only by the blood You poured out for me
It′s only by the blood, I could stand redeemed
All the riches of this world could never be enough
To take away one's sin, it′s only by the blood

You've done what nothing and no one else could do
And the song of my soul is "More worthy are You"

'Cause it′s only by the blood You poured out for me
It′s only by the blood, I could stand redeemed
All the riches of this world could never be enough
To take away one's sin, it′s only by the blood

It's only by the blood
It′s only by the blood
It's only by the blood
