willie will – nothin’ but the blood lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i got myself in this predicament dig it
you can get it in genesis how i sinned against the infinite
kicking it in my wickedness and now my wicked heart
is full of blemishes in the thick of it
i thought i was sick of it
look, so my heart was set on fixing it
but i didn’t realize that i didn’t know how to get rid of it
my soul was dirty from sin and it needed purging
and cleansing so i turned to religion
“that’s what i need, i’ll live better than the rest
and indeed, my soul will be zestfully clean”
i thought morality would be the soap, nope
that was a fallacy now i see my mentality was a joke
left in my pain i still got a connection with shame
still we are filthy and guilty and the question remains
the same, i’m wretched and lame, it dominates within
i don’t know what in the world could wash away my sins

[hook]
what can wash away my sin?
nothing but the blood of jesus
what can make me whole again?
nothing but the blood of jesus

[verse 2]
i was so expecting to be made clean by morality
but romans 7:18 is reality
“and with a soul full of dirt i’m cursed
unless i put first good works and get into a good church
and i should preach think about all the gods i’d reached
and teach cause i’m wise this could be my tide with bleach”
nope, that didn’t cleanse, it only led me to pretend
within, meaning it kept me of my sins (a dirty soul)
i felt wiping it was simple task but to god
my self righteousness was a dirty menstrual pad
all i could say about trying religion
is that it’s like cleaning the outside of your dishes
dig it: it’s not good enough, religion doesn’t do enough
to cleanse, i can’t do enough to loosen up my sins
and get them off my heart, man, i gotta say again:
i don’t know what in the world could wash away my sins

[hook]

[refrain]
and i’m singing oh, precious is the flow
that makes me white as snow
no other fount i know
nothing but the blood of jesus

[verse 3]
it’s like my heart is in the shower trying to scrub
but god isn’t pleased cause obviously it isn’t powerful enough
to deal with sin-stain going insane in the membrane
i’ve been drained trying to cleanse sin and i’m in pain
knowing that i didn’t clean myself and i needed help
jesus knelt down before the father and agreed to bleed
to meet the sheep’s need we needed to be cleaned
we were filled with nothing nice but the blood of christ
is sufficient enough to cleanse us and give in us a sinless
position until he finishes up what he started
my wickedness scuffed me up, given me blemishes but
his generous love erupted in my heart then
i finally saw that jesus’ blood is the only thing
that can get my soul to bling holy and clean
and give it a righteous glow, now i know
nothing but the blood of jesus is able to wipe my soul
white as snow

[hook]

[refrain]
