VERSE 1
 Before the cross I kneel and see
 The measure of my sin
 How You became a curse for me
 Though You were innocent
 The magnitude of Your great love
 Was shown in full degree
 When righteous blood, the crimson spill
 Rained down from Calvary

CHORUS
 Oh, the precious blood
 That flowed from Mercys side
 Washed away my sin
 When Christ my Savior died
 Oh, the precious blood
 Of Christ the crucified
 It speaks for me before Your throne
 Where I stand justified

VERSE 2
 And who am I that I should know
 This treasure of such worth
 My Saviors pure atoning blood
 Shed for the wrath Id earned
 For sin has stained my every deed
 My every word and thought
 What wondrous love that makes me one
 Your priceless blood has bought

BRIDGE
 A crown of thorns, pierced hands and feet
 A body bruised, and Mercys plea
