He said we've got your number 
There is no escape 
For here are your transgressions 
Your failures and mistakes

He pointed to the corner 
Where the scales of justice stood 
I saw so many failures there 
There was nothing good

And in that very moment 
When it seemed all hope was lost 
I said I plead the blood of Jesus 
And His death upon the cross

One drop of blood 
Fell to the scales 
It covered my transgressions 
For all the times I failed

The enemy was mighty 
He came in like a flood 
He was defeated by one drop of blood

I stood and watched in silence 
As others were brought in 
I saw them start to tremble 
When they turned and faced their sin

They offered no excuses 
They offered no alibis 
The truth was overwhelming 
And it would not be denied

Their righteousness like filthy rags 
And nothing they could say 
They bowed their heads in silence 
As they were led away

But for the true believers 
Each time it was the same 
His glory shown around them as 
They called upon His name

One drop of blood 
Fell to the scales 
It covered their transgressions 
For all the times they failed

The enemy was mighty 
He came in like a flood 
He was defeated by one drop of blood

No greater sacrifice has any other made 
O yes he paid the price 
With every drop He gave 
One drop of blood 
Fell to the scales 
It covered my transgressions 
For all the times I failed

The enemy was mighty 
He came in like a flood 
He was defeated by one drop of blood

One drop of blood 
Fell to the scales 
It covered my transgressions 
For all the times I failed

The enemy was mighty 
He came in like a flood 
He was defeated by one drop of blood
