But For The Blood
by The Pruitt Family

Album: So Much Sweeter

Verse 1:
I had no one else to blame
How I longed to hide my face
I was so ashamed of all the wrong I'd done
And I knew I had to pay
I was bound to face hell's flames
I'd be there today
My friend, but for the blood

Chorus:
But for the blood
Shed on Calvary's tree
But for the blood
There'd be no hope
For you and me
For all my righteousness
Is filthy rags
And that's all it'll ever be
But for the blood
That cleansed and set me free

Verse 2:
Even now I get so low
And that's devil lets me know
I'm so undeserving
I'm unworthy of God's love
And Oh yes I know its true
But here I stand with the chosen few
I stand here today, Yes I'm saved but for the blood

Chorus:
But for the blood
Shed on Calvary's tree
But for the blood
There'd be no hope
For you and me
For all my righteousness
Is filthy rags
And that's all it'll ever be
But for the blood
That cleansed and set me free

But for the blood
That cleansed and set me free
