I Know It Was the Blood (interlude)
[Verse 1:]
Everybody listen, just in case you didn't know
Here is the main ingredient
It really changed my life

A life full of iniquity and very deeply stained
But I found my hope at Calvary
Flowing from my Savior's veins

You ask me if I think it worked
I'll tell you I don't think, 'cause I know...
(I know, I know, I know)
Life saving, life changing
It covers me and I tell you I know...

[Chorus:]
I know it was the blood
I know it was the blood

I know it was the blood
I know it was the blood

I know it was the blood
I know it was the blood

I know it was the blood
I know it was the blood
[Verse 2:]
What's able to reach the highest mountain
What's strong enough to reach the valley low?
(Tell me what brings our salvation and defeats our foes)
What has the awesome power to cleanse and make us whole?

You ask me if I think it worked
I'll tell you I don't think, 'cause I know ...
(I know, I know, I know)
What washed me, what saved me
What changed me, I tell you I know...

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
What was it that sprang out like a fountain
When they pierced His side?
What was it that snatched me from the grave
When they nailed His feet?

What was it that flowed down from Calvary's mountain
From His nailed scarred hand
So everyone who was lost on earth
Could now be saved, I know...

[Bridge:]
I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me
I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me

I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me

I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me

The blood came streamin'
The blood came streamin' down
I know, I know, I know

(and if you're not ashamed)
(then let the people say...)

I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me

I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me

I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me

I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me
[Vamp 1:]
I know it was the blood
I know it was the blood
I know it was the blood for me

When I was lost, He died for me
[repeat as desired]

I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me

[Vamp 2:]
The blood came streamin' down
The blood came streamin' down
The blood came streamin' down for me

When I was lost, He died for me
[repeat as desired]

[Vamp 3:]
He died for me

[Vamp 4:]
I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me

[Vamp 5:]
I know it was the blood
Was the blood

Ending:
I know it was the blood
Was the blood, just for me
