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

[Verse 2]
Ab                                               Db
I cannot explain but nothing’s more real than this
                                               Ab
In the presence of God, oh what my heart experienced
Ab
When my shame hit the wayside
                          Db
And my sin met the Most High
Db
I was washed from the inside
Db                            Ab
I was washed from the inside out
 
 
[Chorus]
Ab                Eb  Db
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Db
I know it was the blood
Db
Could have only been the blood

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