I don't believe we've met

But I know who you are

Your story made the papers

Most Wanted ran your name

The press called out for justice

For all the misery the pain

You must have stunned the gates of heaven

He said, "It's easy to explain"



Chorus

It was the blood of Jesus

The blood of Jesus

That opened heaven's door to let me in

It was the blood of Jesus

The blood of Jesus

That washed away my guilt

That washed away

The guilt of all my sin



You know you can't help believing

That when we breathe our last

And we mercifully go free of earthly ties

And we wake up in that city

And behold the family

Who is there and who is missing

Well we may just be surprised



Repeat Chorus



I believe that there's reality in mercy after all

There is truth in being saved

By grace though faith

And I believe that when I'm called

To give an answer on that day

I'll be sure that my debt is paid

Gonna fall on my knees and say



Repeat Chorus
