Honor the Blood
Redemption Echoes: Embracing Grace in 'Honor the Blood'
Lyrics
You say that I'm forgiven But I just can't forget
You acknowledge my forgiveness, but the memories linger.
My guilt always whispers Of all that I regret
Feelings of guilt persist, reminding me of past mistakes.
And I want to believe it That you have set me free
I want to trust that I've been set free by you.
Help me to remember When you look at me
Help me recall your grace when you gaze upon me.
You always honor the blood of your son
You consistently acknowledge the sacrificial blood of your son.
You always honor the blood of your son
Reiteration of the continuous acknowledgment of Christ's blood.
Jesus was the only one
Jesus was the exclusive one capable of paying my debts.
who could pay my debt
Recognition that the debt has been fully paid.
And it is done
Confirmation that the redemption is accomplished.
You always honor the blood of your son
Reaffirmation of honoring the blood of God's son.
When the accuser
Addressing a moment when accusations arise.
Finds me in the night
When confronted by doubts, especially at night.
In a moment of weakness
In times of vulnerability.
And stirs the doubt inside
The doubts are stirred within me.
That it isn't really finished
The concern that the redemption might not be complete.
That the cross was not enough
Doubts that the sacrifice on the cross was insufficient.
Remind me that forever
A reminder that, eternally, I am enveloped in your love.
I am covered by your love
An affirmation of being covered by divine love forever.
His blood Shed for me
Reference to the shedding of Jesus' blood for personal salvation.
