Music Monday // O the Blood

Today's song choice was an easy one. A couple years ago, I met one of the sweetest and most encouraging girls I have ever had the privilege of meeting online. She sent me this message via Facebook and the relationship has continued ever since.

This message touched my heart.

Because God knows there are days when I wonder why I bother putting up videos on Youtube (especially when I am desperately in need of good lighting and a good video camera).

But whenever I doubt, I think back to Miranda and Maddie and how they were encouraged in their time of need through my poor-quality, home videos. They were led to worship.

And thanks to prayer and our great God, little Maddie is in remission now from her cancer!!!

So when a couple weeks ago Miranda texted me a list of songs she wanted me to cover, I jumped at the chance! Her list was more like "Best of Kari Jobe" requests, but that's perfectly fine with me! She's one of my favorites as well. :)

When I saw this song listed, I knew it would be perfect for this week.

The week before we celebrate the most pivotal and life-changing event in the lives of believers everywhere... Easter.

What a sacrifice that saved my life, yes the blood it is my victory. 

O the Blood

O the blood Crimson love Price of life's demand Shameful sin Placed on Him The hope of every man

O the blood of Jesus washes me O the blood of Jesus shed for me What a sacrifice that saved my life Yes, the blood, it is my victory

Savior Son Holy One Slain so I can live See the Lamb The great I Am Who takes away my sin

O the blood of the Lamb O the blood of the Lamb O the blood of the Lamb The precious blood of the Lamb

What a sacrifice That saved my life Yes, the blood, it is my victory

O what love No greater love Grace, how can it be That in my sin Yes, even then He shed His blood for me
