CedarCreek Music Performs "The Blood" by Bethel, with Live Art performance by Mike Fink, during Easter Services

VERSE 1

Everything changed,
it’s getting harder to recognize
The person I was before I encountered Christ
I don’t walk like I used to
I don’t talk like I used to
I’ve been washed from the inside
I’ve been washed from the inside

CHORUS

Hallelujah, halle - lu - jah
I know it was the blood,
could have only been the blood
Hallelujah, halle - lu - jah
I know it was the blood,
could have only been the blood

VERSE 2

I cannot explain,
but nothing’s more real than this
In the presence of God,
oh what my heart experienced
When my shame hit the wayside,
and my sin met the Most High
I was washed from the inside
I was washed from the inside

BRIDGE 1

It’s never been about per - formance perfection,
or striving for acceptance
Let me tell you it’s only by the blood
It’s never been about de - serving or earning,
it’s a gift that’s freely given
Let me tell you it’s only by the blood

BRIDGE 2

Does anybody want to be holy,
righteous purified and spotless
Let me tell you it’s only by the blood
Does anybody want to be worthy forgiven,
justified really living
Let me tell you it’s only by the blood
