While walking down a memory lane, not so long ago
Satan came right by my side making me feel low
He brought up thoughts of hurt and pain when I had gone astray
He wanted to discourage me as I walked along my way
He said you're undeserving 'cause I know where you've been
I have a record of your life when you were bound by sin
I know your darkest secrets that you would never tell
What makes you think you don't deserve a place with me in Hell?
I heard the old accuser and this was my reply
You're right for all the things I've done I sure deserve to die
My righteousness is filthy rags my goodness is unclean
There's only one thing I can say to what you've said to me
It's under the blood, oh praise His dear name
I'm not what I used to be, my life's been changed
Not shackled by sin and shame, it's already gone
I'm happy reminding him, it's under the blood
♪
Many times I've stumbled along this earthly way
I failed a thousand times before for that I am ashamed
I'm sorry for the things I've done, the Lord could hear my cry
But I rejoice to hear His voice, this was His reply
Victory was given me when you're born again
I washed your stained and sinful past and put new life within
No longer do you bear the mark that sin had brought your way
With happiness and peace of mind, praise God you now can say
It's under the blood, oh praise His dear name
I'm not what I used to be, my life's been changed
Not shackled by sin and shame, it's already gone
I'm happy reminding him, it's under the blood
What can wash away my sins?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
It's under the blood, oh praise His dear name
I'm not what I used to be, my life's been changed
Not shackled by sin and shame, it's already gone
I'm happy reminding him, it's under the blood
I'm happy reminding him, it's under the blood
