Story behind the song
I wrote this during a sermon by Stuart Townend. I finished off the chorus at my church houseparty the following weekend, at which it really caught on. Check out the guitar solo at the end by Lee Burnett...
Lyrics
As I come into your presence Heavy-laden with my sin Here I stand in all my shame and wonder will you let me in? Then You turn Your face towards me And You open up Your arms And I see You run towards me And You welcome me back home There’s nothing I can do to make me clean again Nothing I can say to wash my sin away But the overwhelming power of Your blood The overwhelming power of Your blood Can make me whole (Chorus) So Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Your blood has made me whole Turned my mourning into dancing Put a crown upon my head Put a ring upon my finger Though my sin said I was dead Clothed me in a robe of purity And turned despair to praise Now my soul it longs to be with You And worship You always There’s nothing I can do to make me clean again Nothing I can say to wash my sin away But the overwhelming power of Your blood The overwhelming power of Your blood Can make me whole Chorus
