The Spirit of willing sacrifice Will never fail to pay love's price

It's not just from abundance that Christ gives But of the very blood by which He lives...

He saves us from the lives by which we die He saves us midst the tears of grief we cry

Life itself becomes our grave But Jesus Christ is mighty to save!

Saved by the blood and sealed by its power Kept once for all in its Hope every hour

this is the power of life and death The power that gives a dead man breath

The power of the blood breaks every chain! Chains of darkness, chains of sin

Chains of pleasure and of pain Chains that enslave the souls of men-

Of wealth, disease, of loss and gain- chains of lust and chains that blind

chains of religion and of pride Even chains of death that bind

for He gives life to the living and to those whoi've died

Life is a gift, salvation is free- The light of the day and the power to be

All flow from the only one the Father gave For Jesus Christ is mighty and mighty to save!
