Ray Boltz - One Drop Of Blood Lyrics
One Drop Of Blood Words by Ray Boltz, Music by Ray Boltz and Steve MillikanStanding in the courtroomWhen I heard, how do you plead?The accuser of the brethrenWas staring at meHe said, we got your numberThere is no escapeFor here are your transgressions,Your failures and mistakesHe pointed to the cornerWhere the scales of justice stoodI saw so many failures thereThere was nothing goodAnd in that very momentWhen it seemed all hope was lostI said, I plead the blood of JesusAnd his death upon the crossCHORUS:One drop of bloodFell to the scalesIt covered my transgressionsAnd all the times I failedThe enemy was mightyHe came in like a floodHe was defeated by one drop of bloodI stood and watched in silenceAs others were brought inI saw them start to trembleWhen they turned and faced their sinThey offered no excusesThey offered no alibisThe truth was overwhelmingAnd it would not be deniedTheir righteousness like filthy ragsAnd nothing they could sayThey bowed their heads in silenceAs they were led awayBut for the true believersEach time it was the sameHis glory shown around themAs they called upon his nameOne drop of bloodFell to the scalesIt covered their transgressionsAnd all the times they failedThe enemy was mightyHe came in like a floodHe was defeated by one drop of bloodNo greater sacrifice has any other madeOh yes he paid the priceWith every drop he gaveCHORUS (repeat 2X)1996 Shepherd Boy MusicASCAP (adm. by Word Music) and Weedom
