The Blood of Grace
Words & Music by Michael Warner
Verse 1:
When first I saw my sin
Through scales that fell as rain
Broken, my soul cried out
In guilt and holy shame
Verse 2:
And from His nail-pierced hands,
From thorns about his face,
Flowed down that wooden cross
The blood of heaven’s grace
Poured out that I might live,
Offered that none may die.
That all might enter in,
The Lamb was crucified.
Verse 3:
Forsaking all I have,
Dead to what I’d become,
But, for this cause I stand;
The Christ, the Risen One!
Not for some earthly prize,
But for His cross I run,
Till all in darkness find,
The light of Heaven’s Son
Bridge
Hallelujah! Praise the Lord forever!
Hallelujah, Amen!
Hallelujah! Praise the Lord of glory!
Hallelujah, Amen!
Verse 4:
When I behold the Lamb,
Radiant with Truth and Grace,
In majesty enthroned,
In heaven’s Holy Place
Crown Him as King of Kings!
Praise Him as Lord of Lords!
I, in my Savior, reign
With Him forevermore!
Tag:
And when this life is done,
When stand we face to face
He’ll see my sin no more
Beneath the blood of grace.
