Blameless
Dara Maclean Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That You would lay down Your life
You paid the price, the sacrifice for redemption
Now I am determined to know
Christ and Him crucified
Now alive and the power in me is You
Now blameless, You call me Holy
Now spotless, You call me worthy
I am Your child, You call me chosen
I'm Yours, I am Yours
I will boldly come
Running straight to the One
Singing over me
Your songs of salvation
No one can take this from me
I'm a child that You name free
Nothing will separate us
I'm held by You
Oh I know, oh I know I'm
Now blameless, You call me Holy
I've been forgiven, You call me righteous and free
Now spotless, You call me worthy
I am Your child, You call me chosen
I'm Yours, I am Yours
I am Yours, I am Yours, I am Yours
And I am Yours, I am Yours, I am Yours
I am Yours, yes I am, yes I am
Now blameless, You call me Holy
I've been forgiven, You call me righteous and free
Now spotless, You call me worthy
I am Your child, You call me chosen
I'm Yours, I am Yours

Sem culpa
Que tipo de amor Ă© esse
VocĂȘ teria que dar a vida
VocĂȘ pagou o preço, o sacrifĂcio de redenção
Agora estou determinado a saber
Cristo e este crucificado
Agora vivo eo poder em mim Ă© VocĂȘ
[RefrĂŁo:]
Agora irrepreensĂvel, VocĂȘ me chama Santo
Eu fui perdoado, VocĂȘ chama-me justo e livre
Agora impecĂĄvel, VocĂȘ me chama digno
Eu sou seu filho, vocĂȘ me chamar escolhido
Eu sou seu, eu sou Teu
Vou corajosamente vir
Correr em linha reta ao Um
Cantando sobre mim
Suas mĂșsicas de salvação
Ninguém pode tirar isso de mim
Eu sou uma criança que VocĂȘ nomeia livre
Nada vai nos separar
Estou realizada por VocĂȘ
Oh, eu sei, oh eu sei que eu sou
[RefrĂŁo]
Eu sou seu, eu sou seu, eu sou Teu
E eu sou seu, eu sou seu, eu sou Teu
Eu sou Teu, sim, eu sou, sim, eu sou
Me ama, ele me ama

You know, our God is amazing!!! I have been in a small season of spiritual drought and being confused about many things in my life! I was praying last night for God to open my heart. Then not even a whole 8 hours later I hear this song and God drenches me in his spirit. Thank you Dara and everyone behind the scenes for being holy,anointed vessels for the Lord.

I was feeling the same way! She's such a testimony!

thekristenken that is absolutely wonderful. I had a similar situation happen about a month ago. I was having some things happen that started pulling me away from the Lord and then we got those things fixed. In that day we had the t.v. on a worship channel and this song came on. The feeling that ran through my body I can't even describe it I was laughing and crying out of joy and all I could do was thank God, no other words would come out of my mouth but thank you God. I had received the Holy Spirit on that day.

Her voice is really beautiful! It has a unique sound to it!!

I needed this again today. Since mom passed from Covid-19 I've felt distant from the Love of God. This brought me back to my first love--I'm His and He is mine.
