The Blood of Christ


Age after age it exists-See the problem remain
It ever persists- this big ugly stain

The conscience arises our hearts to condemn

Destroys the disguises worn by profane men


Our hearts are defiled We shoulder the blame

This prodigal child still carries his  shame

When will you learn that time takes its toll?

Where will you turn to harbor your soul?


The blood of Christ, The precious blood of Christ

This is the only place in life to turn for release

The blood of Christ, cleansing blood of Christ

The only place in death to turn to find real peace


Our conscience bears witness of our alien state

No merit no fitness to help us to rate

There is only one cleansing that will purify

There is only one ending that will satisfy


No matter the time no matter the age

No matter the crime, no matter the rage

The dark and defiled in judgment they’ll pay

To be reconciled, there is only one way


Purify my conscience,  Purify my soul

I would serve the living God so come take control


The blood of Christ, The precious blood of Christ

This is the only place in life to turn for release

The blood of Christ, cleansing blood of Christ

The only place in death to turn to find real peace


Hebrews 9:14
