Lazaroo – Tuesday, August 25, 2009
Aug 25, 2009 I Lazaroo.
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with white-hot fervor:
“…the blood of Jesus…purifies us from all sin.”
(1 John 1:7)
What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but Your blood, Jesus.
What can make me whole again?
Oh, Jesus.
Nothing but Your blood.
Not my hard work.
Not the money I give.
Not the prayers I pray.
Not the sacrifices I make.
Not the traditions I observe.
Nothing but Your blood.
My society doesn’t want to hear it. The very mention of Your blood
repels them
offends them
makes them wince.
They think Your blood is
old-fashioned
unnecessary
gruesome.
But to me Your blood is
Life
Love
Hope
Mercy
Rescue
Restoration
Forgiveness
My only escape from hell.
My only way to heaven.
Oh, precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
