Nothing But the Blood
Redemption's Melody: Unveiling the Profound Meaning Behind 'Nothing But the Blood'
Lyrics
What can wash away my sin
Asking what has the power to cleanse away sins.
What can make me whole again
Seeking something that can bring spiritual wholeness.
For my pardon this I see
Acknowledging that pardon or forgiveness is found in this.
For my cleansing this my plea
Expressing the plea for cleansing through this means.
Oh, precious is the flow
Highlighting the value of the spiritual cleansing.
That makes me white as snow
Metaphorically stating the result of the cleansing, purity likened to snow.
No other fount I know
Asserting that no other source or fountain is known for this purpose.
Nothing, nothing, nothing but the blood of Jesus
Emphasizing that only the blood of Jesus has this cleansing power.
Nothing can for sin atone
Declaring that nothing else can atone or make amends for sins.
Not of good that I have done
Rejecting personal good deeds as the means of atonement.
This is all my hope and peace
Stating that hope and peace solely rest in this.
This is all my righteousness
Asserting that righteousness is entirely from this source.
Oh, precious is the flow
Reiterating the preciousness of the spiritual cleansing.
That makes me white as snow
Reaffirming the purity achieved through this process.
And no other fount I know
Confirming the absence of an alternative source for cleansing.
Nothing, nothing, nothing but the blood of Jesus
Repeating that only the blood of Jesus holds this cleansing power.
Nothing, nothing, nothing but the blood of Jesus
Reiteration emphasizing the exclusivity of Jesus' blood for cleansing.
Now by this I'll overcome
Stating that victory over challenges comes through this means.
Now by this I'll reach my home
Expressing confidence in reaching a spiritual home through this.
Glory, glory, this I see
Recognizing and celebrating the significance of this truth.
All my praise for this I bring
Expressing gratitude and praise for this profound reality.
All my praise for this I bring
Repeating the expression of gratitude and praise.
All my praise for this I bring
Further repetition of the gratitude and praise.
Oh, precious is the flow
Reaffirming the value of the spiritual cleansing process.
That makes me white as snow
Reiterating the metaphorical purity likened to snow.
No other fount I know
Restating the absence of another known source for cleansing.
Nothing, nothing, nothing but the blood of Jesus
Emphasizing again the exclusive power of Jesus' blood for cleansing.
Nothing, nothing, nothing but the blood of Jesus
Repeating the affirmation of the exclusive cleansing ability of Jesus' blood.
