Written In Blood
I think of You, Lord, and say, "Who am I
That You'd leave Your Father and come here to die?"
He spoke the word, You heeded the call
And the picture You painted to me says it all
On a canvas of wood with nails as Your pen
You signed the pardon for the souls of men
The pages of time speak of Your love
How the world's greatest story is written in blood
When I read Your word, Lord, what gets to my heart
Is, how You wrote the ending right from the start
Every tongue will confess, down on bended knees
That the best work of art was Your masterpiece
On a canvas of wood with nails as Your pen
You signed the pardon for the souls of men
The pages of time speak of Your love
How the world's greatest story is written in blood
I am moved by Your mercy, amazed in Your grace
And what keeps me forever seekin' Your face
Is a canvas of wood with nails as Your pen
Where You signed the pardon for the souls of men
The pages of time speak of Your love
How the world's greatest story, the world's greatest story
How the world's greatest story is written in blood
That You'd leave Your Father and come here to die?"
He spoke the word, You heeded the call
And the picture You painted to me says it all
On a canvas of wood with nails as Your pen
You signed the pardon for the souls of men
The pages of time speak of Your love
How the world's greatest story is written in blood
When I read Your word, Lord, what gets to my heart
Is, how You wrote the ending right from the start
Every tongue will confess, down on bended knees
That the best work of art was Your masterpiece
On a canvas of wood with nails as Your pen
You signed the pardon for the souls of men
The pages of time speak of Your love
How the world's greatest story is written in blood
I am moved by Your mercy, amazed in Your grace
And what keeps me forever seekin' Your face
Is a canvas of wood with nails as Your pen
Where You signed the pardon for the souls of men
The pages of time speak of Your love
How the world's greatest story, the world's greatest story
How the world's greatest story is written in blood
