Praise and worship of Jesus Christ in an Eclectic blend of acoustic and electric guitars. The words are from The Word and my Christian testimony of the struggle
Why do we do what we do, or believe what we believe? Some judge the materialistic as all there is. But, where does the beautiful painting of artistic expression in canvas, word, music and thought come from? From where do we derive altruistic love and feeling for one another? The materialistic explanations fall short of elucidation, let alone understanding of the incorporeal and/or supernatural aspects of our lives. So much so that the inadequate reasoning of the materialists become illogical and incomprehensible. So, why the opposing worldviews? If you believe the material world is the only answer, I would ask that you open your mind to the possibility of your own self imposed limitations. Does the well rounded mind limit itself? Where then does growth come from? In my personal life, I have found music can be a healing balm, a positive motivator and a conduit to profound worship. The music my Lord has given me to play and minister with, are in conjunction with my testimony, my life’s story, and the gifts He has given me. Along with studies for a Masters Degree in Christian Apologetics and Polemics, I am also completing studies for a Masters degree in Theology as well. Again, I feel that you never quit learning, nor are we supposed to. You become stagnant if you remain static! Thanks and God Bless Ron

Story behind the song
The Original Robert Lowry Hymn is different then the one in your Hymnal today. Most Hymnals have shortened it, and changed some of the words... It has been on my heart, for a time now, to resurrect the original hymn, but bring the music into the twenty-first century. There are more hymns of this type forthcoming. I hope you enjoy Nothing But The Blood, I have been playing this version to congregations and audiences for half a year now, and it has been well received. All vocals, guitars, drums and percussion: Ron Gragg
Lyrics
What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus; What can make me whole again? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. Chorus: Oh! Precious is the flow That makes me white as snow; No other fount I know, (Bridge) Nothing but the blood Nothing but His blood Nothing but the blood of my Jesus. For my pardon, this I see, Nothing but the blood of Jesus; For my cleansing this my plea, Nothing but the blood of Jesus. Chorus: Oh! Precious is the flow That makes me white as snow; No other fount I know, (Bridge) Nothing but the blood Nothing but His blood Nothing but the blood of my Jesus. This is all my hope and peace, Nothing but the blood of Jesus; This is all my righteousness, Nothing but the blood of Jesus. Chorus: Oh! Precious is the flow That makes me white as snow; No other fount I know, (Bridge) Nothing but the blood Nothing but His blood Nothing but the blood of my Jesus. Now by this I'll overcome" Nothing but the blood of Jesus; Now by this I'll reach my home Nothing but the blood of Jesus. Chorus: Oh! Precious is the flow That makes me white as snow; No other fount I know, (Bridge) Nothing but the blood Nothing but His blood Nothing but the blood of my Jesus. Glory! Glory! This I sing Nothing but the blood of Jesus, All my praise for this I bring Nothing but the blood of Jesus. Chorus: Oh! Precious is the flow That makes me white as snow; No other fount I know, (Bridge) Nothing but the blood Nothing but His blood Nothing but the blood of my Jesus.

I hear the emotion within your vocals, Ron. :) Nice guitar work. :) When we are covered with His blood, our sins are truly washed away, is the thought that comes to mind after hearing this old hymn once again. :)
