Verse 1

I?m living proof

Of what the mercy of God can do

If You knew me then

You?d believe me now

You turned my whole life upside down

He took the old and He made it new

That?s just what the mercy of God can do


Chorus

Now I?m alive to tell the story

How I?ve overcome

It?s His goodness and mercy

And the power of his blood

I?m so glad that my freedom

Wasn?t based on what I?ve done

But the goodness and mercy

And the power of the blood


Verse 2

Thought I deserved

To be six feet beneath the earth

For all the things I?ve done

The things I?ve said

The choices made that I regret

Oh I would still be lost

But for the mercy of God


Chorus

Now I?m alive to tell the story

How I?ve overcome

It?s His goodness and mercy

And the power of his blood

I?m so glad that my freedom

Wasn?t based on what I?ve done

But the goodness and mercy

And the power of the blood


Bridge

Was the cross meant for me

That my Savior carried

Now I?ve been made free

By the mercy of God

Was the grave meant for me

Where my sin lay buried

Now I stand redeemed

By the mercy of God


Was the cross meant for me

That my Savior carried

Now I?ve been made free

By the mercy of God

Was the grave meant for me

Where my sin lay buried

Now I stand redeemed

By the mercy of God


Chorus

Now I?m alive to tell the story

How I?ve overcome

It?s His goodness and mercy

And the power of his blood

I?m so glad that my freedom

Wasn?t based on what I?ve done

It's his goodness and mercy

And the power of the blood

It's his goodness and mercy

And the power of the blood

Goodness and mercy

And the power of the blood


Spontaneous

The power of the blood

There's power in the blood, power in the blood


You'll heal us today

Wash away, wash away


There's still power in the blood

There's still power in the blood

There's still power in the blood

There's still power in the blood


There's still power in the blood

(Wonder working power) There's still power in the blood

(Wonder working power) There's still power in the blood

(Chain breaking power) There's still power in the blood

(Chain breaking power) There's still power in the blood

(Shackle loosing power) There's still power in the blood

(I know that I know) There's still power in the blood


There's still power in the blood

There's still power in the blood

There's still power in the blood

There's still power in the blood


Bridge

Was the cross meant for me

That my Savior carried

Now I?ve been made free

By the mercy of God

Was the grave meant for me

Where my sin lay buried

Now I stand redeemed

By the mercy of God


Was the cross meant for me

That my Savior carried

Now I?ve been made free

By the mercy of God

Was the grave meant for me

Where my sin lay buried

Now I stand redeemed

By the mercy of God


Spontaneous

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

I remember 


What can wash away my sins

Nothing but the blood of Jesus

What can make me whole again

Nothing but the blood of Jesus


What can wash away my sins

Nothing but the blood of Jesus

What can make me whole again

Nothing but the blood of Jesus
