Verse1
E                        B
  What can wash away the guilty stain
C#m   B                  A
After all the wrong I’ve done
E                      B
  I’ve already tried a thousand ways
C#m       B          A
But it’s never been enough
               B
What could be enough

Chorus
                E       B
Nothing but the blood
                   C#m
A better word was spoken
     A
Oh I know it was
                E      B
Nothing but the blood
                 C#m
Every curse was broken
      A
Oh I know it was
                E      A
Nothing but the blood
                E      A
Nothing but the blood

Verse2
E                       B
  And when I’m reminded of my shame
C#m     B               A
To the fountain I will run
E                     B
Every failure covered now in grace
C#m      B        A
For the Lamb has overcome
          B
What can overcome

Bridge
E              A
On that cross, hallelujah
E                           A
I left my shame, where the nails were
E             A
Jesus Christ, O Lamb of God
E                     A
Be lifted higher, forever

Verse1
What can wash away the guilty stain
After all the wrong I’ve done
I’ve already tried a thousand ways
But it’s never been enough
What could be enough

Chorus
Nothing but the blood
A better word was spoken
Oh I know it was
Nothing but the blood
Every curse was broken
Oh I know it was
Nothing but the blood

Verse2
And when I’m reminded of my shame
To the fountain I will run
Every failure covered now in grace
For the lamb has overcome
What can overcome

Bridge
On that cross, hallelujah
I left my shame, where the nails were
Jesus Christ, O Lamb of God
Be lifted higher, forever

Jesus Christ
O Lamb of God
Be lifted higher
Forever
