Casting Crowns' song 'Nothing But the Blood' is a worshipful reflection on the cleansing power of Jesus' sacrifice. The lyrics emphasize that only Christ's blood can wash away sin, provide pardon, and bring peace and rest. It echoes the classic hymn theme of salvation through grace alone, not by human works. The song expresses hope and righteousness found solely in Christ, drawing the heart toward Him. It is a straightforward declaration of faith in the atoning work of the cross.

What can wash away my sin
what can make me whole again
what can cleans me from within
nothing but the blood
For my pardon this I see
for my cleansing this my plea
draw my wandering heart to thee
nothing but the blood
oh precious is the flow
that makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
nothing but the blood...
nothing but the blood of Jesus
this is all my hope and peace
this is all my righteousness
Lord in you, I've found my rest
nothing but the blood
oh precious is the flow
that makes me white as snow
no other fount I know
nothing but the blood
oh precious is the flow
that makes me white as snow
no other fount I know
nothing but the blood
nothing but the blood of Jesus
nothing can for sin atone
Naught of good that I have done
By you're grace this war is won
nothing but the blood
oh precious is the flow
that makes me white as snow
no other fount I know
nothing but the blood
oh precious is the flow
that makes me white as snow
no other fount I know
nothing but the blood...
yeahh
oh precious is the flow
that makes me white as snow
no other fount I know
nothing but the blood
nothing but the blood of Jesus
yeahhh
