Gsus2
Structure
Oh everything changed
It’s getting harder to recognize
The person I was, before I encountered Christ
I don’t walk like I used to
I don’t talk like I used to
I’ve been washed from the inside
I’ve been washed from the inside Out
Hallelujah hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could have only been the blood
Hallelujah hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could have only been the blood
I cannot explain
But nothing’s more real than this
In the presence of God
Oh what my heart experienced
When my shame hit the wayside
And my sin met the Most High
I’ve been washed from the inside
I’ve been washed from the inside out
Chorus again
It’s never been about performance perfection
Or striving for acceptance
Let me tell you it’s only by the blood
It’s never been about deserving or earning
It’s a gift that’s freely given
Let me tell you it’s only by the blood
Oh does anybody want to be holy and righteous
Purified and spotless
Let me tell you it’s only by the blood
Does anybody want to be worthy forgiven
Justified really living
Let me tell you It’s only by the blood
Chorus again
