One Drop Of Blood     



Words by Ray Boltz, Music by Ray Boltz and
Steve Millikan



Standing in the courtroom

When I heard, how
do you plead?

The accuser of the brethren

Was staring at me

He said, we got your number

There is no escape

For here are your
transgressions,

Your failures and mistakes



He pointed to the
corner

Where the scales of justice stood

I saw so many failures
there

There was nothing good

And in that very moment

When it
seemed all hope was lost

I said, I plead the blood of Jesus

And his
death upon the cross



CHORUS:

One drop of blood

Fell to
the scales

It covered my transgressions

And all the times I
failed

The enemy was mighty

He came in like a flood

He was
defeated by one drop of blood



I stood and watched in silence

As others were brought in

I saw them start to tremble

When they
turned and faced their sin

They offered no excuses

They offered no
alibis

The truth was overwhelming

And it would not be denied

Their righteousness like filthy rags

And nothing they could say

They bowed their heads in silence

As they were led away

But for
the true believers

Each time it was the same

His glory shown around
them

As they called upon his name



One drop of blood

Fell to the scales

It covered their transgressions

And all the
times they failed

The enemy was mighty

He came in like a flood

He was defeated by one drop of blood



No greater sacrifice has
any other made

Oh yes he paid the price

With every drop he gave



CHORUS (repeat 2X)
