God's Own Blood
by Bob Pruitt - Copyright ©

Upon that cross, upon that tree
the blood of Jesus was shed for me.
To cover my sins, it had to be pure,
Because the blood of a lamb could never endure.

Chorus:
It was God's own blood, God's own blood
Delivered by the spirit to Jesus the son.
God's own blood, God's own blood
The blood of the Father, the victory won.
Yes, the blood of the Father, salvation won.

Verse 2
Sin came to earth through Adam and Eve.
God provided the way to give them reprieve.
By the shedding of blood He covered their shame,
And for us through Jesus, God did the same.

[chorus]

Verse 3
To cover our sins for eternity
Jesus did die to set us free.
Not the blood of a bull or a lamb could secure,
It had to be perfect, spotless, and pure.
