[Verse 1:]
|
Everybody listen, just in case you didn't know,
|
here is the main ingredient,
|
it really changed my life.
|
|
A life full of iniquity and very deeply stained,
|
but I found my hope at Calvary,
|
flowing from my Savior's veins.
|
|
You ask me if I think it worked,
|
I'll tell you I don't think, 'cause I know...
|
(I know, I know, I know).
|
Life saving, life changing,
|
it covers me and I tell you I know...
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I know it was the blood,
|
I know it was the blood.
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
I know it was the blood.
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
I know it was the blood.
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
I know it was the blood.
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
What's able to reach the highest mountain,
|
what's strong enough to reach the valley low?
|
(Tell me what brings our salvation and defeats our foes),
|
what has the awesome power to cleanse and make us whole?
|
|
You ask me if I think it worked,
|
I'll tell you I don't think, 'cause I know ...
|
(I know, I know, I know).
|
What washed me, what saved me,
|
what changed me, I tell you I know...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Verse 3:]
|
What was it that sprang out like a fountain
|
when they pierced His side?
|
What was it that snatched me from the grave,
|
when they nailed His feet?
|
|
What was it that flowed down from Calvary's mountain
|
from His nailed scarred hand,
|
so everyone who was lost on earth
|
could now be saved, I know...
|
|
[Bridge:]
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
The blood came streamin',
|
the blood came streamin' down,
|
I know, I know, I know.
|
|
(and if you're not ashamed),
|
(then let the people say...)
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
[Vamp 1:]
|
I know it was the blood,
|
I know it was the blood,
|
I know it was the blood for me.
|
|
When I was lost, He died for me,
|
[repeat as desired]
|
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
[Vamp 2:]
|
The blood came streamin' down,
|
the blood came streamin' down,
|
the blood came streamin' down for me.
|
|
When I was lost, He died for me,
|
[repeat as desired]
|
|
[Vamp 3:]
|
He died for me.
|
|
[Vamp 4:]
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
|
|
[Vamp 5:]
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood.
|
|
Ending:
|
I know it was the blood,
|
was the blood, just for me.
