It’s In The Blood

Verse 1:

My sins, my wrongs, the thoughts hold me back,
It’s the shame, the pain in my heart, cut it off at the root,
Father, grab your axe, and hack away,
I’m just a man, I’m human in my ways,
Convict me, whip me, mold me like clay,
I’m just a man, who’s stubborn in his ways,
Make this heart compassionate, remove my shame away,
Open my eyes to what Christ did, forgive my sins!

Chorus:

Shame, shame, shame go away,
This is the day, the Blood from Christ that takes sin away,
We call upon the Lord, the maker of all, remove the filth,
Place on him brand-new garments, clothe him in your majesty!

Verse 2:

These filthy garments they’re gone, it says in His Word,
But.. why do these thoughts still remain?
He’s testing me in my ways,
Am I a true son of God? Or fake in my ways?
The Lord is mighty, and tests the hearts of those that love Him,
Let Him have His way,
If any man, thinks he’s something, he is nothing,
The dust of the earth is what we are,
Don’t esteem one higher than the other,
We’re all alike, all have sinned, all are guilty, all born of a women,
And all, from the dust of the earth!

Verse 3:

Humble me, let me remember my iniquities,
Not for shame, but to remind me who I am,
How I’ve changed, and where I’ve come from,
This is my story that will help others,
I will not put myself above another,
If I remember my sins, I can use it to my strength,
Now I may approach people with a pure heart,
Speak with boldness of Christ being my cornerstone,
Not with pride, but to the point with a real testimony,
Let Christ work, He’s good at what He does,
You gotta be broken, then let Him invade!

Chorus:

Shame, shame, shame go away,
This is the day, the Blood from Christ that takes sin away,
We call upon the Lord, the maker of all, remove the filth,
Place on him brand-new garments, clothe him in your majesty!

Outro:

This is the day x2
Place on him brand-new garments, clothe him in your majesty!
