Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
O the blood of Jesus
O the blood of Jesus
It will never loose its power
I think we can say, hey
O the blood of Jesus
O the blood of Jesus
It will never loose its power
He was despised and rejected
A man of sorrow acquainted with grief
He was wounded for our transgression
He was bruised for our iniquities
(Ooh) But still He rose up that third day's morning
He got up with all power in His hands
But you know what?
He's going back to His Father in glory
And He's soon to come again
O the blood (Sing for the blood of Jesus) of Jesus
(It was nothing but the blood) O the blood of Jesus
O the blood of Jesus
It will never loose its power
Oh, I'm glad about it, that it'll
Never loose, never ever gonna loose its power
(365 days a year) 365 days of the year
Every second, every minute, every hour
(Never gonna loose)
Never ever gonna loose its power
It will never loose its power
It will never loose its power
