INTRO:
And they stripped Him
And they whipped Him
And they whipped Him
They whipped Him
He said...
VERSE 1:
Made manifest
The Eternal Word became flesh
And came with a aim to taste d**h yep
He took da cane for Cain
Took the pain for our blame
Exchanged honor for our shame
Straps to da back from the cat with nine tails
Claws on the strap left the back with line trails
Blood leaks
Christ blood speaks
Christ blood reaches thugs in streets
So that means peace for all men
But without Christ God has beef with all men
So God laid all our beefs upon Him
Betrayed by all them peeps He called friend
Mocked by the soldier
d**h getting closer
Struggled with the cross down the Via Dolorosa
Peter I told ya
See the co*k's crowed
You're saying I don't know ya
(Re)Member I told ya...
CHORUS:
Blood in da hands, blood in the feet blood in the side
I got da Lamb's blood in ma mind
Yes, da Lamb's blood is divine
You'll never find a love dis sublime
NO!
And they stripped Him
And they whipped him
And they whipped Him
And the whipped Him
He said, “This is for you, this is for you...”
VERSE 2:
Kicked to the ground
Thorns as a crown
Hung naked before all of the town
Christ was the talk of the town
Hear them taunting Him now
“If you're the Son of God come down!”
Straps to the back from the cat with nine tails
Claws on the strap left the back with line trails
Blood leaks
Christ blood speaks
Christ blood reaches thugs in streets
He smashed the wall of separation
That stood between the Lord and every nation
From Genesis and scripts to Malachi 4
Predicted Christ would fix the Adamite fall
All died for one so one died for all
Call Christ the Sun the Son shines for all and
Now we see that we needed a heavenly leader
To lead us away from living in sin and so we sing..
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Man there's no question
Man is so less than
What God intended
No longer kindred
Look what sin did
The family ties rendered
Some watched the Pa**ion of Christ and then remembered how
He took blows from those He befriended but
Many don't know that He chose to be injured
What? You mean He died for our souls to be mended?
Yep. And on the third He arose and ascended
CHORUS
OUTRO:
Oh the blood of Jesus
It washes white as snow
