To Bleed

 

(The following are the lyrics of a song that will be on our next CD.)

 

 

"To Bleed"

 

God spoke, the world was created.

He speaks, it continues to be.

The majesty of the mountains reveals His glory.

The power of His might is in the sea

But to save our souls, and to make us whole,

Our Lord had to bleed.

  

Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness,

the blood of bulls and goats can never be

the perfect sacrifice without spot or blemish,

the holy One who would die for you and me.

For to save our souls, and to make us whole,

Our Lord chose to bleed.

 Let us fall to our face in adoration.

For this love that passes knowledge and all thought

Let us cry to God and the Lamb in exultation.

For the price by which salvation was bought.

For to save our souls, and to make us whole,

Our Lord had to bleed...

Yes, to save our souls, and to make us whole,

Our Lord, He did bleed.

"Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot."

(I Peter 1:18-19)
