Bleeding Song

Nothing else for Sin atones

But the shedding of God's blood alone

No other sacrifice

No one can pay the price

Forgiveness is what we all need

For this hope alone our God did bleed.

The perfect covering

To overcome our sin

In this alone we find our rest

For by the blood we are found blessed.

Oh blessed blood that cleanses me

Unworthy sinner that I am

This blood alone shall be my plea

The blessed blood of the Holy lamb.

The blessed One who bled and died

And by God's wrath was crucified

Appease, propitiate, atone

For you must save and you alone.

By His wounds we are healed

The blessed blood His grace revealed

For mercy flows from god's own veins

The gift he bestows

His grace attains

And bleeding blessing on His own

He covers us in the glory he has shown.

So by the blood we are made whole

This blood alone saves sinsick souls

By the blood we are made new

Wine of forgiveness,Wine that is true

Oh blessed blood, That washes clean

Oh crimson flood Shed for our good

Oh blessed blood

The blessed blood redeems.
