Everything changed, it’s getting harder to recognize
                                        F
The person I was before I encountered Christ
 
I don’t walk like I used to
                    C      A#
I don’t talk like I used to
A#
I’ve been washed from the inside
A#                                F
I’ve been washed from the inside out
 
 
[Chorus]
F                C  A#
Hallelujah, hallelujah
A#
I know it was the blood
A#
Could have only been the blood

F                                               A#
I cannot explain but nothing’s more real than this
                                               F
In the presence of God, oh what my heart experienced
F
When my shame hit the wayside
                          A#
And my sin met the Most High
A#
I was washed from the inside
A#                            F
I was washed from the inside out
 
 
[Chorus]
F                C  A#
Hallelujah, hallelujah
A#
I know it was the blood
A#
Could have only been the blood

It’s never been about performance, perfection
F
Or striving for acceptance
C          A#
Let me tell you, it’s only by the blood
                         F
It’s never been about deserving or earning
 
It’s a gift that’s freely given
C        A#
Let me tell you, it’s only by the blood
                         F
Does anybody want to be holy, righteous
F
Purified and spotless
C        A#
Let me tell you, it’s only by the blood
                          Dm
Does anybody want to be worthy, forgiven
F
Justified, really living
C        A#
Let me tell you, it’s only by the blood
 
 
[Chorus]
F                C  A#
Hallelujah, hallelujah
A#
I know it was the blood
A#
Could have only been the blood
 
 
[Verse 3]
F                            C      A#
What can I say, thank You is not enough
                                     Gm
Jesus Your grace, Your mercy poured out for us
F                                           C    A#
I will love You forever, here on earth into heaven
A#
I’ve been washed from the inside
A#                                F
I’ve been washed from the inside out
 
 
[Spontaneous Chorus]
F                      C
How precious, how generous
A#
Your blood poured out for us
F                      C
How precious, how generous
A#
We remember
