There's power in the blood to save us from our sin
The covering of grace for all who were condemned
Our rescue from the dark into the light again
There's power in the blood of Jesus
There's power in the blood for our pardon and release
To stand in our defense our hope now made complete
Our ransom fully paid in spite of our decree
There's power in the blood of Jesus
To save us all with mercy and forgiveness
The veil was torn and death has lost its sting
Now God and man united once again
There's power in the blood of Jesus
There's power in the blood for all the world to see
His hands nailed to a cross held high at Calvary
His death has brought new life, He holds the victory
There's power in the blood of Jesus
To save us all with mercy and forgiveness
The veil was torn and death has lost its sting
Now God and man united once again
There's power in the blood of Jesus
What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
You saved us all with mercy and forgiveness
The veil was torn and death has lost its sting
Now God and man united once again
There's power in the blood of Jesus
You saved us all with mercy and forgiveness
The veil was torn and death has lost its sting
Now God and man united once again
There's power in the blood of Jesus
There's power in the blood of Jesus
There's power in the blood of Jesus
What can wash away my sin?
Oh precious is the flow
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
