Violently they grabbed His arms 
As they tightly strapped each wrist 
With the hellish looks that 
A strong armed soldier 
Whip clenched in his fist 
Laced with chips of bone 
They beat Him hard 
From His shoulders to His feet 
And it sliced right 
Through His olive skin 
Just like razors through a sheet

Countless times the blood splattered 
As each inhuman lash was given 
Several times His knees gave way 
As His flesh just hung like ribbons 
Then surprisingly He turned His head 
Though the words He used were few
The soldier's face turned pale 
When He said: "This blood is for you"

Uncaringly they tossed a garment 
Across His weakened form 
And His blood pressure fell deathly low 
As the crowds began to swarm 
They forced Him to carry His cross uphill 
As His face they punched and smacked 
While the splinters from the crisscrossed beam Dug deep into His back

Through lack of sleep and dehydration 
His tongue began to swell 
And weakened by His loss of blood 
This Prophet, Teacher fell 
When He did some blood splattered 
On a man named Simon's shoe 
And as he bent to wipe it off 
The Prophet looked and said:
"Simon, This blood is for you"

This blood can save the soul 
Heal the sick, mend the heart 
This blood can give you access 
To the very Throne of God 
And it still can go the distance 
Through the pain to where you are
This blood is for you 
The blood of the lamb

Then they pounded a spike 
Through the bones in His wrists 
Bursting arteries and veins 
And as they dropped the cross in
The hole they dug 
His body convulsed with pain

Through an agony and torment 
That never a soul shall find 
He tilts His face towards heaven 
With full control of His mind
With more love than any human heard 
Before that time or since 
He made a statement that to this day 
Makes the strongest skeptic wince

He cried "Father God, Forgive them, 
For they know not what they do" 
And as He gave His life 
For those lost in sin 
He was saying this blood is for you

And this blood can save the soul 
Heal the sick, mend the heart 
This blood can give you access 
To the very Throne of God 
And it still can go the distance 
Through the pain to where you are 
This blood is for you 

If you're lost and alone 
And your mind is confused 
This blood is for you 
If you feel like you have 
Been hurt and abused 
This blood is for you 
The atoning, cleansing, 
Blood of the Lamb

This blood can save the soul 
Heal the sick, mend the heart 
This blood can give you access 
To the very Throne of God
And it still can go the distance 
Through the pain to where you are
This blood is for you 
The blood of the lamb 
This blood is for you
The blood of the lamb!
