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

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

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

You paid it in full

You paid it for us, Jesus
