No Other Blood

No Other Blood

My slate wiped
Clean
Of everything I
Have done selfishly
Everything mean
And
By what you say?
Christ's Holy, Pure
Blood

On an ancient hill
called Calvary
Put forth for
Every living, breathing
Creature to see
The God-man hung
From spikes in hands
And feet
His love-filled Blood
Staining the ground

So with only from
His lips a few
Sounds
His Pure, Holy Blood
Did encircle, surround
His earth
For all eternity,
All time
Certainly not yours
And never mine

It was only Him
Our King, Lord, Creator
Savior
Joined with the Holy
Father
That made the plan
Only His Blood
Strong, pure, clean
Enough
To save corrupted
Man

So next time you're
Feeling grateful
Get down on your knees
Thank Christ for that
Day most fateful
For there was no other
Blood
That could have done
The job
Rescued us from our
Blackened sin
And
Brought us back home
To our generously
forgiving GOD!
