Album: I Still Need Him
Coarse heavy timbers were dragged down the path
Two rough hewn beams, fastened together by nails and by straps
The birds hushed their singing; from the crowd only jeers
His muscle and sinew glistened in crimson, His eyes moist with tears
He lay looking upward
The angels searched his face
They drove in the nails and the soldiers they lifted the cross into place
No-one really noticed, for it made not a sound
So small as it formed, that first drop of blood when it fell to the ground
But one drop of blood became a river
With power to wash all sins away
There was a miracle no-one could see
The greatest of all, He saved just for me
when one drop of blood became a river
One drop of blood became a river
With power to wash all sins away
There was a miracle no-one could see
The greatest of all, he saved just for me
when one drop of blood became a river
He healed the sick, gave sight to the blind
But his greatest gift to all of mankind
One drop of blood became a river
One drop of blood became a river

The words are so touching. The meaning could only be from the thought that his blood covers us when we take the name of Jesus. - Oct 2021
