His Blood, His Pain, His Sacrifice/Alejandrina Ross

I took my eyes off of Jesus for one moment and I felt myself fall
Ignorant of everything instead of answering the call
Anxiety, depression, I felt out of control
Alone and ashamed, falling deeper into this hole

I was clinging on to anything my old self knew
Instead of clinging to what gives me hope and makes me new
I don’t deserve this, but I know what Jesus will do
He’s waiting for me and He’s waiting for you
To fall in his arms and give up the fight
To focus on Jesus and His victory and might
To go on this journey to bring you to life
Through His blood, His pain, and His sacrifice

I knew I was broken, but He saw His delight
I don’t understand it and it doesn’t seem right
That even in my sin, that hurt Him
He is ready to hold me, love, and forgive
